brought my mittens

When I wake I writhe I kick
Off stifling heat and
Covers cloaking sweat
And dirt
I’m tied trapped bent to
My limits
Everything
I cant stand
Anything
Here
Any more
I need to cut this
Humid
Hell
So
Snow is cold
But in its surface
I can stretch my arms
My legs
And show the world an angel
I know
When to come inside
It can be
Suicide
But I know
When to come inside

  This felt like a slalom through dead man's run...the poles connected to land mines...very fast...super wicked...a controlled jerkiness...you give your reader a new set of eyes to see the world through...everyone doesn't do that.

  Sometimes I wish there wasn't so much to take in with you...but I know, in my heart, that it must be better that way.

  Excellent piece; frantic yet measured, vert effective with fine use of metaphor.
