NIGHT ON A BARE MOUNTAIN
NIGHT ON A BARE MOUNTAIN
Time loses its way
in the dark
even I have been
erased
by what
I cannot see
unsure that I am
still me
I touch the tear
on my cheek
to reassure myself
I am: & that
the world is.
I whistle Mussorgsky
to keep a stiff upper lip
up.
Spring waits
at the top of the mountain.
I climb towards
the new dawn.
My friend got lost in the fog and the dark on a mountain but found herself in the dawn of a new morning. She suffered only from being very scared and very cold.
