The poems are liars. They will say and do anything, promise you anything, to make you feel exactly what I feel. But the feelings at least are real.

Walking In Snow

is like dancing on the nosehairs of angels
too intimate, tickling the inner mysteries, kicking up furrows of white,
is like letting your mind wander 
late at night, a gravelly crunch
under foot, the possibility
of avalanche, of yeti monsters, 
of green green grass poking through, the likelihood
of no return.
