Poem on Winter and such



Winter,
white world, a twilight star-
distant home he walked out on
and never returned to.
Friends worried,
sent out a search party.
Winter,
where were you? in what hole
did you sleep, face covered in concave feathers,
furrowing ambitions to be deleted.
Winter ravaged by streams of ice-vacuumed cocoons,
haven to ravens and all wild things-
waiting patiently guarding armored atop lamp posts
girdled furiously in linen,
abundant particles of cellar beams creeping in-
Winter, move over, make way-
one more instance of a vast indecipherable landscape
crisscrossed by fox tracks.
Winter was where we hid-
buried, avoidable-
from a tripartite covent of vixen.
