Tightrope Walker

Ricochet pinecone
Riverside elderberry
Underwater rushing
Tightrope walker

Whistlestop coming
Soon I gotta go, gotta
Tiptoe mudslide
Tightrope walker

Timid as a raindrop
Bold as the iceberg
Broken as the thorn of the
Blackberry crushing

Goose-down comfort
Blackbear hideaway
Going out for winter
Tightrope walker

Undertone overcast
In breath outside, going on a limb
And tearing of the bandage
Uncover fearlessness
When lightning
Strikes it meets
In the middle, as a
Bone-bent riddle be met with a
Riddle be found
Inbreath outside...

Ricochet pinecone
Cavernwide honeyberry
Waterbent keeper
Tightrope walker

Elderwise timestone
Rise a gaze east-side
Telling to the cradle
Tightrope walker

Told as a footprint
Burned as a brightening
Sudden as the rush of the rib-bent whistler

Windsweep set-down
Shadowside lightaway
Fool-eyed leader of the
Tightrope walker...

Ricochet pinecone
Riverside elderberry
Underwater rushing

Underbelly overcast
Going on a limb and
Tearing of the bandage
(tightrope walker)

(when lightning strikes)
Outbreath inside
(when lightning strikes)
Inbreath outside

Outbreath inside
Inbreath outside
