Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Go for a Walk

Nik Wallenda, King of the Wire,
Chose Chicago to take a walk,
'Twixt and 'tween the twin corncob spire,
Marina Towers. Wind would knock
Against big shoulders daring to
Keep balance 'cross a hundred feet,
Hundreds of feet below in view,
Of one misstep, sure death to meet.
A massive audience watched live.
The city and the world held breath.
Would or would not the will survive?
Nik once more walked away from death.

A first awesome sight to behold,
Walking the wire with a blindfold.
