Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
It’s all about balance,
that’s why I carry the pole;

to ensure my toe on the line,
and don’t worry about me,
I’ll be fixed soon and just fine.
