The Grand Circus of Life

The Grand Circus Of Life
-Walter Rossman

Welcome to the greatest show
no cords, no nets below
your life is at stake
don't make it a mistake
below the tightrope, failure stares
don't stumble, yet nobody cares
about you in this circus
to succeed, don't be nervous
don't fail, rely on sureness, 
luck will smile on us.

I would slightly disagree. Making good decisions and pursuing what is meaningful provides a good safety net. Nice poem. Very thoughtful.
