daily ordinary life

makes many wish

to scales the heights

and touch the ceiling of their heavens


well good luck

the best most of us manage

is a tent and who wouldn't

want to be a trapeze artist


the air sliding around

your agility like clouds parting

around a streaking fuselage...

a daily ordinary dream so preferable


to being a clown

in your own circus...
