Razor Blade of Life

A thin sharp edge 

To balance on 

Hopes 

Split wide open 

Please 

Watch your step 

In to the future 

Walking on eggs

So much easier 

Dodging so many evil bullets 

Whew! 

Another very close shave 

Another very long day

"A poem to me is the essence of any thought,
Being built from its foundation into tower scraping sky.
It can fly like no other bird to places never seen,
Even spaceships can only dream of taking its place."
