Hannah Doherty
Sparkles from the sky
Softly break
Under your weight
The dark wet wild world
Welcomes you
Weeping
Water that soon turns to ice
Like the sparkles from the sky
Coating the world in white
Your breath steams
The same breath
That kills
That stings
Creeping out from the edges
Escaping into the world
Despite your efforts to block it
Like yourself
Crunching and crashing
Grass and pavement
Wandering
Wavering
A constant thump beneath you
The only constant in your life
Another day colder than the last
But hotter
Always hotter
Spinning faster
Walk your pasture
