Uncertainty

I live my life walking on eggshells.

And this precarious balance

is a toddler's first step;

it is the egg

askew

slipping sideways

off his skull.

love the slippery words making slippery sounds..and eggs cracking...
If humpty was more hard boiled we would not have such a flowing verse.

[Poeticadia]

A very apt image of the unpredictability of the mind as it attempts to seek balance. Well composed!

[Judy Ponceby]

Intriguing write, makes me think. Can see this referring to a few different things as well as to the most obvious. Looking forward to reading more of your work.
