Net Loss

Trapeze guy

Totally overwhelmed
by the whole process
of constantly living
precariously

Performing 
his slick tricks
without a net 

Playing 
to a dwindling crowd
who have seen 
this act before

The crush of
playing the
starring role
in an obsolete
circus show

The reality
of gravity
brings our
tragic hero down

As the wayward clowns
can no longer be found
cause
they are out
in the parking lot
sucking down
apathy
