Musings: The Pressure of Performance

On the stage 

They need to convince 

On the floor

We need convictions



On the board

They need to prevail

In the street

We need to travail


On the sea

They need to swim

On the shore

We need to coast


On the mountain

They need to enlighten

In the valley

We need to spring


On the ladder

They need to climb

On the track

We need to trek


On the field

They need to play

On the stands

We need to assess


On the table

They need to plan

In the chair

We need to discern


On the shelves

They need to sell

On the lanes

We need to test


On the highway

They need to speed

On the trail

We need to endure


On the platform

They need to showcase

In the bar

We need to know


On the stove

They need to boil

On the counter

We need to melt


On the broadway

They need to throng

On the lonely path

We need to press
