I have thrust my fistsA
up to ice in theB
galactic mire of lakeC
lured my minnow wrigglerD
eyes as bait to ensnareD
inroads lake bed wreathsE
across the windchill spine ofF
brooding heartG
-
I am on the essence of the NorthH
where latitudes of cold spontaneityI
remind me the nameless lakesJ
part not easily with their secretsK
-
A man's bones go easily to rotL
in the frigid perspirationM
called primeval oozeN
precambrian sweatO
the tertiary stage syphilitic crawlP
of advancing iceQ
-
All those terms your detractors analyzersR
devotees coin to define you the BorealP
taiga subarctic steppes white hellP
recoil under the onslaught the lustrate message strainingS
up alkaline clearD
-
Water is your bloodT
A vast hoarding most of thisU
planet's fresh drinkV
is flushed through yourD
bowels with kidneysW
separating the renicV
qualities as snow andX
sleet the night side ofF
your characterD
-
Tom son of Thomson fameY
his little canoe immeshedX
as scrubbed floorboards nowZ
a giant winnowing such scatteredX
firewood over a slow crop ofF
putrefying muck perhapsA2
I see your eyesB2
as sturdy bubblesC2
popping from legionsD2
of green liquidX
to carouse with yourD
firm memoryI
