Tight rope
I’ve done my tight rope walking
Kept my balance
Got comfortable
Slept on the rope
Jumped it
Tied myself in knots
It is all about the getting up
And getting on
The carry on
It’s all about the focus
And the drifting past of winds
In the clouds
In the mist
In the rain
In the storms
When you hold yourself together
It’s only your madness that remains
To get from A to B to C to D
It’s the final destination
Keeps you hanging on and walking
While all or no crowd is cheering on.

Wow! Strong images that speak to courage and tenacity in difficult times. Really wonderful use of the metaphor.
