THE BEAUTY OF THE HIGH WIRE DANCER Paul Millns
Oh the beauty of the high wire dancer
stepping out along the line
working high above this anchored down world
taking her life in her fragile hands
every time.
She will dance in long deserted places
where winters leave their mark
a ray of sunlight for the hopeless cases
carries the sighs of this weary old world
in her heart.
And all the lights go dim
a single spotlight flares
a roll of drums begins
and suddenly she’s there
almost naked almost bare
walking out on air…
Long ago we walked that wire together
our balance quite sublime
every move we made with grace and glory
no safety net beneath our flying feet
every time.
Oh the beauty of the high wire dancer
never looks towards the ground
and we’re watching but we’re hardly breathing
we love it so, though we all really know
its a long way down
its a long way down.
Paul in London, September 24th
