Premium MemberMoments of Inertia

A funambulist
Walks the tightrope
Between mind and heart ~ 
An error of judgement
Places love in jeopardy

Premium MemberFunambulist

Squeezing a wonderland of raw emotion through an isthmic delight

I giggle and wiggle like a tightening button at a peephole and despite

Twist turns and stitch ups my tack does not come loose at the seam

A dream weaver or seamstress in a flow of full consciousness stream

Until I don't know any longer if I am the needle my eye or the butt

Need slimming down at my round waistline or in two halves I'll be cut

Epitaph For Alphonse

EPITAPH for ALPHONSE

Neath this stone lies Alphonse Dubois
Funambulist of Avoirdupois
Might have lived a bit longer 
Had the rope been stronger

A slack rope
                                          Funambulist enchants
                              Screams my little daughter to delight

                          Mad as a hatter, risks life to dangerous skills
                              An idea that lives on for generations
                               Adventure or poor man's livelihood, 
                                   
                                         Daring dazzle across,
                                                The River !
