"glacial" poems
That workaholic lady who's always on call, keeping up with the market fall. That newly married lady with chunky red bangles, returning to her father's big castles. That person who's scared to get lapse, so stays active on the google maps. That person who swings like a kid at the back door, Or the one who perform calisthenics on an empty floor. That next door girl with a red lipstick, flicking her shinny hair & gossiping with her clique, That dreamer gazing outside the window, That overworked soul dozing on his elbow. That 21st century kid, listening to Eminem & playing video games. Or That 90’s kid, listening to Jenga Boys & playing outdoor games. That banker with a big fat stomach, filled with his beautiful wife’s love. That lady who eats like a thief, in her big fat bag hiding a beef. That old man who can’t stand Bombay's winding turns. That granny spotting & criticing  every fashion trends. That man who has Raju Rastogi’s concerns, thinking & chanting for earns & returns. Those kids who believe their job is to fill the voids in a battlefield, in the still crowd surpassing like electrons into a magnetic field. That lady sitting under cold seat like a glacial, than standing with 7kgs in a crowded central, & tryna stay sane listening to George Michael. That geek who switchs from Linkedin to Arjun Reddy, when the masses flee into the scenery. That trader crunching numbers so rapidly, when the stock prices go down hourly. That person on the last seat, diagressing from work & gazing around, soaking in her pashmina, with a career newfound.

the walls of the inside passage look the same from sound to straight tugs and plugs dot the coastline as the quartermaster rolls giving time for evening glare   pods are in sequence as the high tail smashes and jaws at the krill white bellies and sea cows bob and weave as bow heads glide over haida gwaii   northern lights dance and tlingit chant as the tide settles softly on savory shores their getting hungry in hoonah as the blue back and beating drums mark the life blood of the sea   driftwood nets and sitka spruce surround the cook house ravens and tinhorns man the scullery kerosene lamps flicker as clam shells roast on open flames   villagers stroll on pebbled sand *in the harbor of souls where ships set sail on might and mass into the steady winds of the golden skies* ice fields (to the north) of kryptonite blue cutting hills at a glacial pace knuckle clouds above the snowline where warlocks craft a hidden trade   trappers, skinners muscle shoals grizzly feasts in kodiak bowl determined pilgrims on a dead horse trail in search of gold the holy grail

You were born of oceans, glacial upheavals melting a temperate forest of raining seas I climbed your stair step moss to see night stars mingle with fir trees I watched through the night only sleeping when stars did, when birds came echoing through your woods, at first light, in mists of fog verily I slept in forest song

With bamboo husks scattered, My last bones shattered. We mourn a loss of bliss, Draped in fear learnt to dismiss, I call for all to gather. The stalks once in my heart, Intertwined; and broke apart. I never knew how weak I'd gotten, As my glacial mind defrosted, And from within; resilience departed. My thoughts cannot grow, Pierced by what I do not know. I'm getting colder, I am not a soldier, I'm a victim to the blow. As the last bit of me was hollowed out, I spoke the words of hope through my mouth: "I will learn to accept the pain, Rather than soaking it in my veins, I'll filter it to the ground." --------------------------------------

Urban spread and over stocking **** deforestation’s shocking, Depletion of aquatic life Intrinsically creating strife, Industrial pollution’s goo Ozone depletion... ALL FOR YOU! *Environmental degradation Means the world’s a weaker place, Susceptible to malady Wide spread across the human race.

His blue eyes are like glacial-lakes, wrapping around his heart till he's chilled to the bone from the cold. A deadly place where treading is no longer permitted. His eyes are transparent and distant as the impersonal clouds passing overhead. Even as I stands before him, reflecting off him. I am still merely a reflection. He knows my face, I reason silently. From the hills of my cheeks, down towards the valley separating my lips. He should recognize it all. Instead a blank expression greets me.     A look of cold, solid insouciance. I'm immediately angry with myself for wanting to justify his indifference's. A reflex I've never been able to expel. The vestigial limb on a skeleton. A party favor from another time forgotten for the newly discovered toy. I twist in the fridged winds wrapping around him. My force giving under the great pressure magnified by his powers. I never wanted to dance upon his breeze. This realization makes me burn hotter. My anger brighter than the northern star. I welcome it, my amounting rage. I embraces it with a raging smile. His glaciers may be cold, immovable at times. A pretentious notion I might freeze. For I am the sun swirling in nova's ring and cannot be affected by his black iced personality.

Mountain Pass
shadows deepening snow topped indigo mountains flamingo pink skies camped by a glacial lake watching the end of the day a single ****** swims past its wake a thin silver line then a loon calls from far off and my heart disentangles as the universe floods in and washes away my pain in a deep ocean of stars bliss incandescent

A story, a story! (Let it go. Let it come.) I was stamped out like a Plymouth fender into this world. First came the crib with its glacial bars. Then dolls and the devotion to their plactic mouths. Then there was school, the little straight rows of chairs, blotting my name over and over, but undersea all the time, a stranger whose elbows wouldn't work. Then there was life with its cruel houses and people who seldom touched- though touch is all- but I grew, like a pig in a trenchcoat I grew, and then there were many strange apparitions, the nagging rain, the sun turning into poison and all of that, saws working through my heart, but I grew, I grew, and God was there like an island I had not rowed to, still ignorant of Him, my arms, and my legs worked, and I grew, I grew, I wore rubies and bought tomatoes and now, in my middle age, about nineteen in the head I'd say, I am rowing, I am rowing though the oarlocks stick and are rusty and the sea blinks and rolls like a worried eyebal, but I am rowing, I am rowing, though the wind pushes me back and I know that that island will not be perfect, it will have the flaws of life, the absurdities of the dinner table, but there will be a door and I will open it and I will get rid of the rat insdie me, the gnawing pestilential rat. God will take it with his two hands and embrace it. As the African says: This is my tale which I have told, if it be sweet, if it be not sweet, take somewhere else and let some return to me. This story ends with me still rowing.

What can you say about Pennsylvania in regard to New England except that it is slightly less cold, and less rocky, or rather that the rocks are different? Redder, and gritty, and piled up here and there, whether as glacial moraine or collapsed springhouse is not easy to tell, so quickly are human efforts bundled back into nature. In fall, the trees turn yellower- hard maple, hickory, and oak give way to tulip poplar, black walnut, and locust. The woods are overgrown with wild-grape vines, and with greenbrier spreading its low net of anxious small claws. In warm November, the mulching forest floor smells like a rotting animal. A genial pulpiness, in short: the sky is soft with haze and paper-gray even as the sun shines, and the rain falls soft on the shoulders of farmers while the children keep on playing, their heads of hair beaded like spider webs. A deep-dyed blur softens the bleak cities whose people palaver in prolonged vowels. There is a secret here, some death-defying joke the eyes, the knuckles, the bellies imply- a suet of consolation fetched straight from the slaughterhouse and hung out for chickadees to peck in the lee of the spruce, where the husks of sunflower seeds and the peace-signs of bird feet crowd the snow that barely masks the still-green grass. I knew that secret once, and have forgotten. The death-defying secret-it rises toward me like a dog's gaze, loving but bewildered. When winter sits cold and black slumped between its two polluted rivers, warmth's shadow leans close to the wall and gets the cement to deliver a kiss.

Aqua white, in a glacial vanity cabinet of pan cake foundation, pure like progeny, The wind sings the squirrels to sleep in this acreage of dreams. The lunar reflection Off the snow shows one how they will die, peaceful thought broken by a sudden clamor of crunching One can sense under imagined steps like the sun on your shoulder one perfect day, It feels like memories past. An undulation of swift muscle appears from the void into the moon glow cream, Moving through the scape like the ocean foaming, without direction, yet perfectly on path. Peace not broken, rather fastened by the past, the present, an no necessary future, Here in the snow, where squirrels can be caught thinking and the deer gambol with the timeless winds.

Orcas in Puget Sound Along the road, abandoned wild apple trees bend with their heavy loads, dusty skirts of blackberry bushes purpling fingers, piercing flesh mouths ringed with berry juice, vampires all. Along San Juan Island salmon leap clear out of the briny water, just yards ahead of their predators, Orcas, dorsal fins curving shiny black, sluicing and slicing the surface like sharpened knives They have bred with one another for 10,000 years trolled these waters through famine, earthquakes, world wars through shifting continents, glacial avalanches, through the extinction of whole civilizations. Standing on a cliff, my daughter and I watch the Orcas churning the water - studies in grace the largest gem on the necklace of a great food chain and when we sleep we too chase the great King Salmon of our deepest dreams, the fathers we lost, the currents that bear along children Translucent jellyfish, palm sized, breath below sideways exhale, convulsive inhale umbrellas opening and closing a thousand years or more sliding through forests of brown kelp where mollusks cling We have clung like this to one another, with my body thrown over hers for protection and her exhaling away from me If Mama Orca keeps her young close, so will I If there are salmon to chase and harbor seals to command, so we will Arcing in the late August sky slapping and parting the surface, over and over the whales, lords of the Sound, swim in our brains as we sleep sparkle against blackening waters You are of my body from my body cleaving there for 10,000 years Whatever quarrels there are on land vaporize In the presence of these creatures, arcing against all that is temporal, vicious, small, studies in power and grace The tide pulls out, skimming across rocks and oysters in their muddy beds But this need to care for you remains as big as an Orca your appetite for adventure as voracious and I watch you, my child, disappearing with summer into high school, into womanhood, into the salty, light-dappled ocean

A wonder to my eyes from man whose blinded faith he lets them see.. A voice of my song symphonies of life lose its note you conduct a new.. An ark of Le voyage sailing tides of shore to shore trod waters core.. A blimp up above gracing colors of glacial on air everlasting he care.. A rock of revelation standing every storm to storm Avant is his norm.. A shepherd of lambs from my heart whilst was lost to him, I found..

Take me with you to your Atlantis Where hues of blue glisten in noons For eternity we embrace in its promise Are days of sober in crystallic bliss Are nights of glacial comfort under mystic lunes Take me with you to your Atlantis Wash me into a tender kiss Too soft to be witnessed but the full moons For eternity we embrace in its promise Beyond boundaries of mortality at this ocean, through the skies and dunes Take me with you to your Atlantis Volumes and arks fill up the abyss with painted tales of Atlantic ruins For eternity we embrace in its promise When love dreamily left only to reminisce as the ink of Plato seeped in tunes Take me with you to your Atlantis For eternity we embrace in its promise

Take me with you to your Atlantis
《☆ Ode to Miller Spring ☆》 I have traveled this road. I have traveled this road since first I came to be here. This journey was my awakening to the new existence I would step into. Foreign to me the illustrious homes. Dripping willows, old oaks, poplars... Perfectly kept grounds. Checkerboard patterns carved into lush grass. This road is winding. One needs to go slowly. Families, children, animals,  all enjoy this path. The winds blow at this highest point, up above the Glacial Basin that forms the river below. Before farmland, home to Ojibwe, Lakota. The Spring The deep Spring of Healing Ancient, pouring forth from the center of the Earth. This road, brought me to a place of solitude... An open space. Land of possibilities. I have traveled this road.  I have traveled this road since first I came to be here. This road has led me to the new existence I have stepped into. Perfectly kept grounds checkerboard patterns carved in lush grass. The wind blows at this highest point, up above the Glacial Basin, that forms the river below. Before farmland,   home to Ojibwe, Lakota. The Spring The deep Spring of Healing. Ancient, pouring forth from the center of the Earth. This Spring, that quenched my family's thirst. This Spring, that pulled my people here, so many years ago. A road brought me to this place of solitude. An open space. A land of Dreams. I wonder, what Dreams, this land will hold for me? ☆●⊙●☆●⊙●☆●⊙●☆ ~July 2014~May 2015~ 2nd Edition Copyright © 2015 Christi Michaels. All Rights Reserved. "Miller Spring" is a pure crystalline-rock aquifer that has been revered by all peoples blessed to live within it's reach. The tribes of the Ojibwe and Lakota shared the spring. It was called the "Sweet Spring of Healing Waters" This spring was also shared with Settlers as they arrived. When the land was owned, the spring has always been made accessible, to All People. It should be noted that this spring water is exceptionally clear, crisp and has a sweet bright taste It is delicious! To this day Miller Spring is available to all. It's icy cold waters gush forth 24/7~365 days a year out of a well by the side of the road, down about a mile from my home. I actually live in a modest house on two original acres of this beautiful land, which is now bordered by five "illustrious" homes.

Awakening
《☆ Ode to Miller Spring ☆》 I have traveled this road. I have traveled this road since first I came to be here. This journey was my awakening to the new existence I would step into. Foreign to me the illustrious homes. Dripping willows, old oaks, poplars... Perfectly kept grounds. Checkerboard patterns carved into lush grass. This road is winding. One needs to go slowly. Families, children, animals,  all enjoy this path. The winds blow at this highest point, up above the Glacial Basin that forms the river below. Before farmland, home to Ojibwe, Lakota. The Spring The deep Spring of Healing Ancient, pouring forth from the center of the Earth. This road, brought me to a place of solitude... An open space. Land of possibilities. I have traveled this road.  I have traveled this road since first I came to be here. This road has led me to the new existence I have stepped into. Perfectly kept grounds checkerboard patterns carved in lush grass. The wind blows at this highest point, up above the Glacial Basin, that forms the river below. Before farmland,   home to Ojibwe, Lakota. The Spring The deep Spring of Healing. Ancient, pouring forth from the center of the Earth. This Spring, that quenched my family's thirst. This Spring, that pulled my people here, so many years ago. A road brought me to this place of solitude. An open space. A land of Dreams. I wonder, what Dreams, this land will hold for me? ☆●⊙●☆●⊙●☆●⊙●☆ ~July 2014~May 2015~ 2nd Edition Copyright © 2015 Christi Michaels. All Rights Reserved. "Miller Spring" is a pure crystalline-rock aquifer that has been revered by all peoples blessed to live within it's reach. The tribes of the Ojibwe and Lakota shared the spring. It was called the "Sweet Spring of Healing Waters" This spring was also shared with Settlers as they arrived. When the land was owned, the spring has always been made accessible, to All People. It should be noted that this spring water is exceptionally clear, crisp and has a sweet bright taste It is delicious! To this day Miller Spring is available to all. It's icy cold waters gush forth 24/7~365 days a year out of a well by the side of the road, down about a mile from my home. I actually live in a modest house on two original acres of this beautiful land, which is now bordered by five "illustrious" homes. We moved here from the City in the year 2000 Living in the suburbs was the "New Existence" I had stepped into...

Dear Arjana, Isis told me that you left your paradise for love in disguise  Camouflage love  Erroneous love  Inaccurate love  Artificial love  Mimic love  Man-made love  ... Substitute love ... I can't trust the "fact" that you wanna desert me only to hydrate a man who's life is so sparse with affection  Can't you tell by how devoid his life is of women?  He can't storm into your life and bring forth lush  He can't be your sunshine and make you feel tropic  He can't have you sprung and spring you out of your glacial phase  ...Smh  Bottom line Arjana babe  Is that he cannot draw the line between your north and south poles where it's typically warm when I'm around and rock your equator wild as a 200 miles per hour cyclone Lol!!! ... He just can't  And I could  So why do you even give G-Gwa-Gwala a chance?  However you say his name!  You need to come back home to your paradise  Before you end up a dystopian  Please reply =-| Sincerely Masika "Zola" Oluchi

Letter to Promise Land
phobic sky orphic sea malleable beings exposed to the atmosphere can we finally be surfacing? aliferous dreamscape living, breathing particles and waves sediments that the glacial ice has carved off the earth to build their erosion timeline a memory of us together collecting stones touching hands filigree and shadow metanoia in the sanctuary where we feel safe can we finally be surfacing?

Cleopatra, Cleopatra
Arduous late Winter woes amplify in February false hope We’re all sick of constrictive clothes and cold climes conducive to staying in Cabin fever running rampant 45° t-shirts & sunglasses everyone driving with their windows down   Hoping Vernal rituals performed early will hasten Spring’s arrival I’m done fed up ready to move on Going crazy in the cold writhing to get moving unimpeded by frigidness and snow I’m ready for Spring for Summer for Fall I’m ready for the scent of thawing soil in the air biking in the Sun, verdance, and flowers in bloom I’m ready for grass between my toes Fireflies, crickets, peepers and warm night stars I’m sick of frost reddened runny raw noses sick of numb fingers and toes and having precious few daylight hours I’m sick of combatting glacial winds with layers, of treacherous icy apathy, and dreary bleak boredom I’m sick of not being able to sit on the ground sick of long pants, long socks, long sleeves, and silent stagnant long nights So, despite the fact that I’ll pine for January every day over 90° Despite the fact that when mosquitoes swarm I’ll wish a frost would **** the little ******** and despite the fact I’ll get just as fed up with temperate seasons I still want Spring and then Summer and then Fall But February brings false hope and despite the lengthening cheery sun months still stand between us and t-shirt weather mild nights, grassy hills,   and emancipation from an inclement icebox atmosphere

Smile I'm lost inside of my head Smile The clouds have gotten even heavier Smile I don't remember how I got in here Smile How long has it been since this happened? Smile I can barely feel my face anymore Smile I can barely hear my thoughts anymore Smile I can't even feel my heartbeat anymore Smile It hurts Smile It hurts Smile It hurts so much Smile My lips crack blood cascading down my chin Smile In rivulets Smile It goes down my neck pasting my shirt against my skin Smile Boarding up the way out like plaster Smile Coppery metal salt Smile My teeth start breaking into Glacial shards Smile I can feel my muscles screaming in agony Smile My fingernails crack Smile The bone crowning the split flesh Smile Just smile… It all goes away Smile…
