Life (With Nonet)

by T.E. Loper

 
Poised on the line between life and death

(Maintaining the center of things)

Walking the straight and narrow

Fate looming with each step

Too far left or right

And God is met

Acrobats

(With no

Net)




The nonet contest got me playing. This poem isn't an entry in the challenge (I've entered "Live Love" if you'd like to check it out), but I thought I'd post it anyway. Images of falling always come up (go down?) when I think of a subject for a nonet, but I suppose it's just a balancing act in the end.
