The Tightrope Walker Poem by Mihai Brinas

The Tightrope Walker



the tightrope walker on a wire
today is the train
never to arrive
to its destination
he used to see the safety net
as an intertwining of knots
leading to so many directions
each direction with its own destiny
turn that way
or the other
between the rooftops of two worlds
this is how he saw it on that final day
the one acting as a tightrope walker
and the one everybody knew
and named as a clown
