Your ekphrastic poem is lively and skillfully-written, describing workers
carrying on in a normal way while their lives are in almost indescribable danger. Just the thought . . . Yikes!

Comment from Heather Knight
What I like the most about this poem is the positive interpretation of a photograph I have always regarded as sad.
Lovely rhythm and rhyme as usual.
Thanks for sharing.

Whatever the format may be supposed to be, this is an excellent read that fits in with the photograph and the dangerous job conditions of the era. Dont worry about "the rules".

Atop the world -- love that phrase! ;) And who cares about a particular format? Your offering has a light-hearted rhythm to it and that added 'atop the world' just brings the reader back from your joyful romps up there with these crazy guys... very fun! ;) :) Thanx for sharing, ma'am -- hope all's well over there in your little corner of the world! ;) Yvette

Comment from Thomas Bowling
I have a fear of heights. I don't even like to look at pictures like this. American Indians are said to have no fear of heights. For this reason, many of them are ironworkers. They can have the job.

Comment from karenina
The refrain/repetitive line reminds me of a Kyrielle--but that would have a few more stanzas I believe. Someone smarter than I am will identify the form--if not you can claim it! Either way your poem goes perfectly with the photo...and more than that, conveys a message that what others may deem a "blue collar" job--does, in fact, take some "atop the world!"--Karenina

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written short rhyming poem about the working men eating their lunch atop the world from where they can see over the city while they share some smokes and sandwiches in their lunch break.
