Wandering but trapped. Like the coral beneath the ice. Can't run, can't hide. The water flows and consumes. Traps and constricts. Freezes. Trapped beneath the ice She flows like a river with no delta. Like the wind with no trees or mountains. Time will unfreeze they say. But time has no watch. Time has no clock. That coral looks to the sky and to the clouds, The shapes are gone as are the memories. Slowly fading away, Like the cirrus wisps against the blue sky, Slowly fading away.

Coral Beneath the Ice
Wandering but trapped. Like the coral beneath the ice. Can't run, can't hide. The water flows and consumes. Traps and constricts. Freezes. Trapped beneath the ice She flows like a river with no delta. Like the wind with no trees or mountains. Time will unfreeze they say. But time has no watch. Time has no clock. That coral looks to the sky and to the clouds, The shapes are gone as are the memories. Slowly fading away, Like the cirrus wisps against the blue sky, Slowly fading away.
