North

Astride the ice bear I ride:
I hold handfuls of his hollow hair
hands knees heels clasp
his rocking gait.
Arctic winds sculpt
the ellipse of his shape.

Our long blue shadow rides on the east.
We hear seals who sing
under fast ice.


Poem Artwork

This was inspired by a sculpture in Norway of a girl riding a bear.

The Dynamic Great Lakes
