RISKING ABSURDITY

AND DEATH

Like an Acrobat

THE POET

Above a sea of faces

Paces his way 

and all without mistaking

any thing

for what it may not be

For he's the super realist

a little charleychaplin man

to a high wire of HIS own making

climbs on rime  

Where Beauty Stand And Waits

may or may not catch

her fair eternal form
