Ice more than Frost – v6

ice more than frost
on the flat surfaces;
flat and slanted
against the wind
even the doorway

all covered, frozen,
encased in white, in ice
temperature still falling;
well below freezing
that dark, dark night

melting only by applying
the exhaust of the engine;
the car awakening slowly
from its dormancy, frozen,
from its mask of ice

bending to Pamola’s will – v4

Long before the snow melt
the coming of real springtime
snow still on the mountain
Pamola’s home, his realm
the cloud this morning
molded to the mountain
giving in, submitting,
bending to Pamola’s will.

The cloud pulled down, stitched,
pushed down, in submission
not parallel to the horizon, level;
bent, folded, arced over the peak,
the cloud this morning
molded to the mountain
giving in, submitting,
bending to Pamola’s will.

The sky darkening, in the early sunlight
I could see the fog rising, filling in,
the fabric, the clouds moving in;
but not level, straight to the horizon,
the cloud this morning
molded to the mountain
giving in, submitting,
bending to Pamola’s will.

bending to Pamola’s will – v3

long before the snow melt
the coming of real springtime
the snow still on the mountain
Pamola’s home, his realm
the cloud molded to the mountain
giving in, bending to Pamola’s will

the cloud pulled down, stitched,
pushed down, in submission
not parallel to the horizon, level;
bent, folded, arced over the peak,
the cloud molded to the mountain
giving in, bending to Pamola’s will.

the sky darkening, in the early sun

a spectral mountain

rising above the highway
off in the distance, miles away
a spectral mountain rising
the same colors and texture
of the cloud above, around it
a spectral mountain, massive
anchored in time and space
