Life on a Rope
by Peter Pestoni
"Life on a Rope" is a poem written by American poet Peter Pestoni and published in 1983 by Savant, a not-for-profit literary publisher.

I am a
prisoner of
everyone's questions
their
laughter
illuminates my mind
in solid
colors,
freedom
lives only in
conversation,
I fear
in tight-rope
walking
I,
alone,
am i
with no reasons
and answers,
and no
name
for the
gamble of blood
helpless,
I step into the
darkness
not knowing
what darkness hides.
