The Circus

Another pleasant memory from last summer...

Spotlight.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Welcome to my one man show.
It’s a multilingual, multicultural, multiple personality event.
I aim to please.

Watch me on the tightrope,
One step at a time,
Always in control.
As I twist and turn,
You think I might fall,
But I know better.

I can juggle too,
Even from up here.
Watch me as I toss one ball in the air,
And then another, and another.

I have the agility of an acrobat,
And the innate clumsiness of a clown.

I miss!
I lost a ball,
The shows over.
I dive down into the net,
Into oblivion.




Wonder how long I'll last this time!?? I've re-evaluated and slightly altered my technique!
