Grammatical mistakes in a poem are still grammatical mistakes. I didn't know this was in a poem, but even so, poems need to be understood in the round.

Much appreciated.

@Aziza , Beautiful :) , yes, happiness isn't one thing but takes form depending how we see it. It's you and only you that can generate your happiness. By the way, what did you understand from the description above?

I know one man he works in the circus. He dances on the thread above the scene. He is thin, he trains too much. He left his house when he was young, thus showing his choice. His work is difficult, but he is ready to sacrifice himself for doing this. I think, he is one of those who were not afraid to make challenge to life, to its common rules about who is who. There is a dilemma: Who is more independent: a president or a prisoner? Sometimes to be happy is much more common than we imagine it. You choose the way how to realize it. Somebody want to conquer territories and be the king, but somebody wants to know that there is a little star in the sky shining just for him.

I totally agree with your explanation, and I had no problem understanding the description or the grammatical connections.

It is poetic and needs a little punctuation. However the precise location of the punctuation., will cause disagreement among English speakers, native and otherwise, teachers and none teachers.

IT MEANS

He was happy to live forever dreaming about what might be, but remained an ordinary common man for all his life. Not achieving any fame, recognition, or greatness for any discoveries inventions successful business etc. <= the here bit


THEN he dies and/or shines like a star in the sky, = a belief some people have about what happens after death.

Thus he happily lives, lusting after his dreams, only to forever remain common somewhere here; or and then shines like star up above

There are many ways to punctate this, maybe you should ask a new question.

What is your opinion on how to correctly punctuate this and give your reasons.
