The dry land speaks exposed— Cold, crisp, fragile. Thin ice dips and meets river bottom A fracturing like parched skin on bone Whip sound cracks Splitting the blue sky open In a ****** of crows One cries For the absence of snow A sharp echoing decree. “I am sorry,” I call back, but it fades into the wind— A lover’s plea Writ too late.

The Dry Land
The dry land speaks exposed— Cold, crisp, fragile. Thin ice dips and meets river bottom A fracturing like parched skin on bone Whip sound cracks Splitting the blue sky open In a ****** of crows One cries For the absence of snow A sharp echoing decree. “I am sorry,” I call back, but it fades into the wind— A lover’s plea Writ too late.
