twisted
minds foggy with cold,
wind currents approach
Nascar speeds and dizziness
commences outside tents
flopped by temperatures
knifing exposed skin;
each miniature tent-thread
torn asunder
spelling doom;
outside
ice crystals form on eyelids,
exposure just split-seconds
away from comprehension;
the beauty of reds, greens,
sky-pinks glow and glint,
electrical energy
speeding through
the universe,
but latching onto
cold mountains
terrifies explorers
bent-nasty
in their bedrolls,
keeping warm.
GAD i love your imagery, your words--the auroras come alive in your write! BRAVO! i saw them last night (here in texas!). if it's not cloudy outside, and there's another magnetic storm (good chance), i'm going skywatching again tonight :)
Dear readers, this is my third book of poems, and inside are a special collection of what have turned out to be not only MY personal favorites, but also the favorites of many of YOU. Some of these have never been available in print before...
