Take off your shoes.
Wool sweater.

Messy hair. Step forward.
Fill your lungs with cold.

Open your throat. Empty your ears.
Check behind you. Nothing. Shiver.

Check once more. Shiver.
Your spine this time. Pulse.

Goosebumps. Back of your arms.
Raised like hyenas. Cackling.

Toes to the edge. Reflection. Shiver.
Look back, look up, look for land, look for green.

Grey. No clouds. Quivering breath.
Exhale. Watch them leave you. Clouds.

Toes to the edge. Down again.
Shiver.

Shiver.
Grey. Shiver.

Reflection. Shiver.
Stop. Shiver.

Reflection. Shiver.
Listen. Shiver.

Toes to the edge.
The edge. Shiver.

Blink. Ripples.
Toes to the edge.

Exhale.
Reflection.

Ripples.
Shiver.

Fog.
Shiver.

Stop.
Stop.

Stop.
Shiver.
