More snow. More cold. More snow. More cold.
WHAT WE IMAGED
Winter wants the Mitten
The Lower grabs the Upper
Pulls the weight of white starflakes
In perfect form down heavy to palm
The best to do is to roll to the center
A tight ball of the white chill
Fight it all out till the end
Lay your angel down in
Extended sweeps of arms
And legs, prostrate to the heavens
Better to pray for world peace
Than the hope of Winter’s end
There’s more than any of us need
In the slip and slide to where you
Want to go if you can get there
In the silence of the black and white
Winter wants the Mitten hard
Like I said. best to roll to the center
Lay your angel down and pray
for Spring
