Wafers of Ice

Footprints in the frozen mud
crowns of the craters
perching between the peaks
grabbing the tops of the hollow cups
wafers of ice
frost really
like a frozen host
wafers of ice
sacrificed
to a child’s footfall
crushed in a whisper of time
a moment of pressure
caving in
and falling away
lost
