Winter Wind
Winter Wind

Polar vortex winds--
icicles dripping water
strike spring's warm soil--
blow through the city:
my internal organs shiver,
vital fluids freeze,
and arthritic knuckles throb.

Spring is a dream
echoing through glacial canyons,
and across stark white snow fields
to numb the sweltering heart of civilization.

Line Count: 11

Written For: "The Taboo Words Contest ~ On Hiatus"
