help me pleeeeeeeeeeese?

I tried my best to give the name to this poem but can’t with two evidence.

so help me giving it a name with evidence from the poem

poem:

Poised between going on and back, pulled

Both ways taut like tightrope-walker,

Fingertips pointing the opposites,

Now bouncing tiptoe like a dropped ball

Or a kid skipping rope, come on come on,

Running a scattering of steps sidewise,

How he teeters, skitters, tingles, teases,

Taunts them, hovering like an ecstatic bird,

He’s only flirting, crowd him, crowd him,

Delicate, delicate, delicate, delicate…….now!
