The Edge

Standing on the edge

The wind moves his hair, his coat, and his soul

He finds freedom 

Standing on the edge

He holds onto bridge cables to steady himself 

He finds courage 

Standing on the edge

One shoe off

Two shoes off

He sheds his coat

The wind blows it away

The wind threatens him

Standing on the edge 

The man jumps

The wind blows him away

Along with his coat, his hair, and his soul

His shoes remain

Standing on the edge
