a circus acrobat
He said he felt like an actor or an acrobat on a stage.
A good farmer (pianist, husband, acrobat, plumber, etc.) does not ex officio eliminate all the evils he can.
His favorite metaphor is that of a circus acrobat walking a tightrope, tipping this way and that, achieving temporary equilibrium.
These include acrobat, internet, cigarette, reset, teapot, and tonight.
And yet the audience reaction is in some ways more fearsome for the singer than for the stumbling acrobat.
The performers, as street clowns and acrobats, climbed the fountains and street lamps; curious passers-by joined the procession; the audience multiplied; walking turned into running and finally into a stampede.

They were very husky men, agile acrobats, and their acrobatics were quite entertaining.
