Walk the Plank

There is more than
one way in
But I hit
a wall every time
I put it out
and instantly
want to pull it back
Judging too hard
a little bit red
feeling silly
So I take a
deep breath
and leave it be
Those who hear me
are the ones who
can relate
Doubt rising
I can only push through
Am I being real?
Am I really
doing the work?
Making it work, a little
scared. What if I
fall, will there
be a net?
or will the
gathered crowds
just stand, stare aghast
then turn away?
It’s really not
that bad.
Just scary
stepping out
on a narrow ledge
a few inches
off the ground.
