Poetic Podcast Episode 46

Every artist inevitably falls down..

unexpectedly 
with red cheeks 
even the legends 
the experienced 
tumble occasionally ..

dumbfounded 
feeling foolish 
shaky hands 
frozen in place 
left to recover instantly..

character’s built
an uneasy journey 
the limelight shines 
easily saving face 
spotlight on a star..

Inevitably, every artist falls down.
