wax coated matches for the somersault into niagara /
able to start a fire no matter how soaked in window condensation /
licked in the morning, scraping away long sleep parchment /
to be the daily practice astronaut /
tumbling in a replacement environment under the falls /
lifting three times body weight, trying to ignore the cameras /
constructing a distant habitat for those living without air /
drown or suffocate here unless the door remains closed
