shrug zodiac icy town pressing frigid
huddle goats debating warm cuts swooping
the goats huddled together
to keep warm
against the icy wind
swooping across the plains
temperature falling rapidly
the pale winter sun setting
frigid snow turns to night ice
covered in cuts and bruises
car wheels still spinning in the air
overcome with a pressing need
to find shelter
no point in debating with myself
whether to go or stay
too late
to consult the weekly zodiac about the future
too far from town - alone out here
atlas shrugs
What a landscape this evokes - sometimes calling on god is all we can do when the road comes to an end
ReplyDeleteVery evocative for our winter weather...
