Stilt Walker

Stilt walker looming high above me,
Tell me, stilt walker, what do you see?
Planets in orbit and twinkling stars?
Jupiter, Venus or maybe Mars?

Stilt walker looming above the crowd,
Do sounds up there ring nearly as loud
As sounds down here on the ground below?
Tell me, stilt walker, before you go!

    An intriguing image! I have never seen a cloaked stilt walker! Like a mysterious figure! And the pool of red light just beneath the stilts adds a kind of “thriller” mystery to this scene!

    That used to be a really big thing with young folks. I would never dare get on them.
