Although we did,
We are condemned,
In the solitude of animals,
In the cold of the water and the snow.

So many mountains live in us,
Peaks and cracks,
We know nothing more
That what swans tell us.

We cannot climb
The light or deep paths,
STOP! The azure tells us,
Bend the head and go away.

A poem concerning the troubles of the world, and of man, something we all must learn to deal with or perish.

~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~
