Balanced against an arched moment, where a held breath leaves the room in silence.

Every muscle strains to flex and hold a position never meant for long.

The show of white as a slight grin disrupts the look of concentration.

Each slow shuffle forward heightens the tension as the dance steps waltz across a precipice unseen.

Carefully edging under a line where the least of errors would see a wall of silence come falling down, followed by the clamor of derision and laughter.

With measured pacing and shallow breaths, all thought is turned inward until the line is crossed.


Notes: Limbo – whether it’s something where we cross a bar… or balancing just upon a line.
