Creativity starves insanity
There's a skittle in the right hand of a clown walking down George Street. Two on the ledge watch another pair attempt to clear the first set of steps at the library walk up. There's discussion between trying to figure out the mechanics of the jump, and what exactly is happening.
Tentative with all fingertips on toes, the two school boys keep taking a shot at the lip. Both for reasons strange and unseen lead in with open hands, ready to clip the tip into somersaults over dozen or so steps. One makes the jump on his fifth attempt. The other is far more timid and takes a round about run on the attack.
Pulling his pants up daintily like a dress, or for the fear of ripping legs sticking in the heat, there are a few times when his feet are lazy enough to send him toppling over the stonework. Legs better than that keep his head up high and skin free from shedding into scratches of blood.
Psyche out is the hold back and there's no hope facing down fear if fear is tying both shoe laces together. Now, jump without the run off and it's a clearer stride. Make it look more fearsome than it is and that holds things back. Busts knees either way if the roll down mid air takes time to float.
