Trance

February 12, 2020 newspaper Poetry

Longing

For the burn of a snowflake

The cold that ensues

Dreading its volatility

 

Reaching

For the clamps of concentration

As the rest of the universe

Gently shuts down

 

The drowsiness in my gaze

As I fill with warmth

And for an instant

I am whole
