SLOGGING THROUGH

In purgatory silence

A fool in the snow

Can’t see where to go.

 

Toward Patience

or Time

or Remember When?

 

At His cross-roads,

the way so

Glacier slow.

 

Northern: Drifts of Doubt

Southern: Endless Drought

Eastern: Fields of Pride

Western: Wasted Time

 

All Kodak-scattered,

Shattered,

Under the tundra of

Yesterday’s Blunder.

 

Chilly smiles deliver warmth

Perhaps mistaken

Before history morphed.

 

Spring will come, but for now,

The Dunce, in flake-strewn air

waves crispy gloves to see

a route towards Wherever.

 

Just, Free.

 

Watching iPhone-boy,

on your distant side-street in quiet

Don’t Care,

shift the cozy curtain there,

Toss a gesture.

Where.

 

Just point for Him in falling snow.

Diabolically smart,

You must know ... 

Give it over.

Get it over.

Finally,

and be Done.

 

Just tell the

blinded

fool to

Run.
