The ice spreads heavenly into the dark
And smoothes the simple heavy knife
That cuts through imaginary space
And develops our long forgotten fate It cuts the memories-
the joy
Awakens nightmares from beyond
And all in the ultimatum cry
That spreads and leaves- life to die
Frost covers hearts and birds and bees
It sucks out the youth of low regrets
It tightens knots of final spells
And puts an end to wedding bells
So Christmas comes and all is still
It has forgiven me that night
The sun rose late but with no doubt
The cold wrapped tight around my mouth.
