a long way to go,
as I continue to climb,
it’s almost a race.
don’t look down, look up,
did you say that I’m tiny?
just think perspective.
you see from my side,
I’m invincible, really,
I am a giant!
such fun, eh… giggling.

This image shows a small metal statue of a tiny man climbing a pole. The statue is of a man wearing a suit and a hat and looking upwards.
Written in response to Sadje‘s What Do You See #297 photo prompt.

Never look down…or, indeed, back!
