heard the mountaintop be scraped clear of snow this morning. some angry man shouting up the cliffsides he said: "take it all and quickly. before my hands find the strength to close. take me into the calm this thin air carries my tears too easily." he said: "you were right about my legs standing for the sake of looking down at you scared of laying things bare" he cried "i was wrong about you that the words meant something more and that things get better in the end"------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "that things get better in the end" smothered in something icywarm
