And like a ditch,
Like its risen flakes
That tither snow
Like a fathers stitch
With his child bearing
On his knees.

Its my eyes,
My feat,
My running with
The wolves,
The chatter of their claws
Through the eyes of the wind,

The expression of a man,
With a glove that bends
It’s roots around my finger
That peels the silver ring
My mother gave me when I was young.

A ring that stares from below my neck,
Around and round,
Above the lips of my skin.

Outstanding write.

I especially liked this:
..."The expression of a man,
With a glove that bends
It’s roots around my finger
That peels the silver ring
My mother gave me when I was young."...

Brilliant expression

"A ring that stares from below my neck,

Although I may not fully get this but you used a lot of times of the word of  "stare" as if there were an eye outside of you but seeing things for you.

Beautiful poems. And quite deep for me to touch the bottom.
