Atop the world

by Debra White


Atop the world is where we're at.
Above it all, we sit and chat.
On metal beam high in the air,
our sandwiches and smokes we share -
atop the world.

Atop the world our seat may be
precarious, but we can see
for miles and 'long as we sit still,
we'll feast our eyes and eat our fill -
atop the world.

I'm not sure what this format is, or even if there should be more stanzas to conform, but I hope that you enjoy whatever it has turned out being! :)

Atop - on top of
precarious - dangerously insecure
