　　Skills

　　--by Jonathan Aaron

　　Blondin made a fortune walking back and forth

　　over Niagara Falls on a tightrope—blindfolded，

　　or inside a sack， or pushing a wheelbarrow， or perched on stilts，

　　or lugging a man on his back. Once， halfway across，

　　he sat down to cook and eat an omelette.

　　Houdini， dumped into Lake Michigan chained

　　and locked in a weighted trunk， swam back to the boat

　　a few moments later. He could swallow more than a hundred needles

　　and some thread， then pull from between his lips

　　the needles dangling at even intervals.

　　I can close my eyes and see your house

　　explode in a brilliant flash， silently，

　　with a complete absence of vibration. And when I open them again，

　　my heart in my mouth， everything is standing

　　just as before， but not as if nothing had happened.
