The poem
This is the word tightrope. Now imagine a man, inching across it in the space between our thoughts. He holds our breath.
There is no word net.
You want him to fall, don't you? I guessed as much; he teeters but succeeds. The word applause is written all over him.
I think you have real talent and you should keep writing. People are interested in long meaning poems. Write something about someone you know or any object
cute. nice, surprising approach.
im sorry...but the comment above was so patronising. was that someone trying to give carol ann duffy ADVICE? WHAT AN IDIOT... i'd like to see one of 'cassies' poems. the more butterflies the better of course. and nice objects that she knows about. lovely. not.
