Kicking Time

Kicking Time

(for Lesly)

crunching the air
tapping snow
sticking
sticking the moment
awake
kicking time
then away from here away from now away
but now
cooling breath of fire
breath of ice
pushing tugging
against the cord
against the past
then dive into
the vanishing ice and snow
emerge to reach and
kick and
breathe and
flow of water
in furious stillness
