Snowbound
Snowbound

Dripdripdrip
and the silence
deepened
as a snowdrift deepens
at the base of a wave: blue light
at the curl
dripdrip
and the snugness of being encased in ice
no wind
no sight
fear
at the coming melt
drip
then silence
waiting—waiting—waiting
for even the movement of water
gave us hope for life
but the silence

silence


silence



drained all color from our voice
and in the void
the dreadful sound of silence
sang the tune of our tomb
