Tightrope walking;
tiptoeing carefully from crisis to crisis
juggling the most important things in my life -
a collection of delicate spheres of spun glass.

Traversing the tightrope tripwire
as gingerly as I can...

If I falter, if I stumble
my world and I will plummet to the ground
and shatter into a million pieces
because I never learned how to use a net.
