on his head

on his head 
thick rug support
and shaky balance
thinking of eyes looking on
becoming steady the breath
is strong to compensate
for confidence lost
somewhere on his road to now
ready to sit up straight
relaxed flip it upside down
and start all over
again as many times
as he can on his head
balance he takes for granted
standing feet first wanting
new eyes to see the whole
picture not just the words
scribbled underneath…
