Hanging by a thread
Write something humorous that involves the phrase “hanging by a thread”. Poem, prose, just thoughts - your choice.
Friends
They know your threads,
the shining ones,
floating like spiderwebs
one blow to clear them.
The thicker ones,
that may dent kitchen scissors.
The biggest ones,
that anchor your soul.
They could blow,
they could cut
Instead,
they teach you new knots,
bring you stronger ropes,
and new anchors.
