Now the oxygen is thin and bodies lay in snow-capped caves we'e weighted down by heavy lids carrying today's rations and yesterday's burden one of your breaths is three of mine sleeping as easy as seeing in white-outs too far up nowhere is warm anymore and we're telling tales of altitude sickness while coughing into our sleeves.

It's been a long time again, I hope you're all well.
