The Big Freeze

This night is crystalline
In its silence,
A silence broken only by
The aching cries of the water,
Its bones being broken by
Winter’s hammer
With its shattering stillness.

In the sky
The Milky Way,
A dragon of a thousand icicles,
Remains perched
Motionless,
Reflecting space
As time is trapped
In a falling crystal.
