To step into the fire and death on the other side
Larry Lowry 1959 (Pryor)
To step into the fire - As a unknown to hazard all life one minute death the next. To be alive beyond what hazard falls you. Life asleep is as most live never really living asleep. To be the one alive seeing all and finding real life at chance death. To feel like hanging off a cliff no one helping and tigers waiting. Are you alive with everything to lose. To walk into the fire knowing death on the other side.
