standing precariously
at the edge of the cliff
the idea if the fall,
or its possibility of it
of its aftermath,
look at the world today (and the dizziness)

There’s a point in the play Blithe Spirit where the ghost gets distressed and runs around the stage with a high pitched squeal–EEEEeeeeeEEEEEeeeeeEEEEEeeee. It’s sort of the feel of the poem and photo….
I do not know that play, but think I would like it!
I think it’s a Noel Coward play, but can’t say for sure without googling. It’s about a widower who’s dead wife is trying to keep him from remarrying. A medium is brought in to communicate with her. It’s pretty funny. She’s always on stage reacting, but of course, nobody sees her.
I like how it is designed almost to ignore the cliff, in your poem the expression of that feeling, it is a way of happiness I think, to live without fear if possible : )
There certainly was that feeling at the time. Now, it feels more threatening 🙂
