Poems

Glacier

Dead to the world a thousand years,
 
in a lake immured in ice.
 
 
You woke me up.
 
 
Mist.  I found I'd been sleeping
 
in a charred forest.
 
 
My body clung to night.
 
White light from the depth of the glacier
 
floods into my skin,
 
reminds me –
 
 
you walked on that lake.
 
Leaving your tracks – skin, scars.
