GLISTERING ICE

Whipping wildly within the willows
Invisibly inching into the ice

Disaster decides death and denial
Automated atomic acid accumulates

Elongated ecstatic evictions emancipate
Forget framework for fatality

Bandage the bridges burned before
Sever silver, sterling sunsets

Poisonous pricks placate our peacefulness
Monogamy merely means mortality

Quiet the quizzical quilted memories
Radiate relations readying rescue

Light luminous living lovers
Collecting cannibalistic cries

Xeric zones zipped zilch
Gaseous glowing green gallows

Hollowed happiness hurtled hard
Knowing nothing’s near

Until even the dead quiver with fear
