Like a fight?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

A bag weighing slightly less than my own weight (we\u2019re not quite in balance) is suspended from a pulley.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m strapped in with a corset.<\/p>\n

Standing still at over 30\u00b0, the crowd passes by; some of them don\u2019t see me. Then a cry of surprise, a gasp of fear from a woman in the audience who spots me. I let time pass \u2013 impossible to tell how long \u2013 sweating in this work overalls that strangely resemble a sandbag.<\/p>\n

Slowly, I start to move. It\u2019s a struggle.<\/p>\n

To play \/ struggle with this burden, this obstacle.<\/p>\n

The words come, keep it light, until exhaustion sets in.<\/p>\n

Until it is released, pierce the bag and let it empty.<\/p>\n
