Funambule

Divague
Marche sur le fil
En équilibre sur l’à-pic
A la merci du vide
Au bon vouloir des vents
A la grâce des Dieux.

Avance
Tremblante et haletante
Tu plieras tu chancelleras

Ton corps t’échappe
Et tôt ou tard.
S’effondrera.

Décide
Défie la peur
Ou tombe
A la merci du vide
Au bon vouloir des vents
A la grâce des Dieux.
