It seems to be working today! Yay, What a powerful piece, I think we all teeter over the tightrope of our life’s, so full of ups and downs. I love writing Haiku’s and other short forms of poetry, maybe I am a miniaturist at heart, and maybe you are too.
Have a great week, Charles. 🙂

  Thank you!! Some don’t have a safety net and others do, (a person or people in their life to catch them), or they get through life without ever being forced to walk that terrifying tightrope. I wrote it from my perspective as a DV survivor and formerly unhoused woman.

    I do unfortunately understand all too well.Life can throw some real zingers at us. It can make us so much more grateful when we get to the top side.
