It is always a risk

Reaching out

Into the blue

With no arms

To hold you

Falling freely

Has its drawbacks in crash landings

Safety nets are commonplace

In practice

For the real world experience

When there is nothing

Riding on the outcome

But a bruised ego

Never let go until you know

How to land

Without catastrophic mishap

Stay attached

To the safety line

When walking

On a high wire

Freely all the way down

Far outweigh reliance

On a counter balance

A strong hand

Of support

There is danger enough

Without discounting

A possibility

Of total surprise

There are times

When what we need

Is to take heed

Of a wise head

Listen awhile

Nobody, whether they be

Great or small

Is better off

On the down side

Of dead
