Ice Cold

Never been to the
northernmost
end of the earth
where iceberg
drifted...

But it felt like just
an inch away from
your shoulders...

The distance made
me shiver
I battled my own
December fever...

What more can be
colder than this
iceberg you
inflicted in me?

What more can be
painful than
knowing it never
melts away?

FROZEN

alphabet hanging
words unspoken
mind drifting
in black and white
down the north pole
of a shadowed dream
freezing the nightmare
of the restless poet...
