The exercise:

Write four lines of prose about something that is: teetering.

I'm choosing to believe that the thing teetering was you, on a stepladder, while putting Christmas decorations up high enough that the moose can't reach them and eat them :)

Teetering
"Are you sure that moose eat tinsel? I mean, it can't be very nutritious can it?" asked Steven, who was teetering on a stepladder outside the front doors of WrongStart and clutching a package that claimed to be a mile-and-a-half of gold-ish tinsel.
"Just get it up high enough that no-one sitting on a moose can reach it," called Emily, who seemed to be a long way down.
"Right, sure," said Steven, "but what are we worrying about here, exactly?"

Greg - you gotta moose-proof the decorations, that's just common sense.

Hah, Steven seems quite reasonable. Not reasonable enough to avoid being sent up the ladder, but still.
