a rigging system is a fragile interface
an elevator of wood and pulleys
one that can hold a flat set easily
today
today I lowered a flat stage set onto the ground
and by god were we high up
and I caught the set as it swung over the edge of the platform we were standing on
and I was too scared to let go of my set
so I tilted over the guardrail
over the side
as the rigging system floated downwards
I could've fallen and died there with it
somehow I survived
somehow I let go
somehow I let go
