Michael Fischer - Egotistical Acrobatics

The acrobat walks the tightrope
above those stricken with awe.
So many fear his first attempt,
but he makes it look so simple.

But his act’s not without flaw;
It’s flawed with his flaring ego.
It’s flash without any substance;
It’s only about money and fame.

Michael Fischer
