"Trust us."

She's flying so high in to the air,
free like a bird, high as a kite.
Something called an arabesque,
as the crowd ooh's and aah's.

Her arms begin to flail,
and her eyes widen.
She realizes on the way down,
no one will catch her.

She crashes on the asphalt,
breaking both hip joints.
Her legs flop around like jelly,
having lost their support.
