And we will sing the frost away

[sovay]

I am tired of not writing anything down.

Soli Invicto

Will your hair brush as black in summer?
Will your shadow on crabgrass and timothy
fall as cleanly as kanji of moon and pine
the snow casts back at the northward sky?
Will your eyes reflecting beachcombers,
bicyclists, the dark firework-dashed bay
hold them all as stilly as frostline earth,
safekept as barley? Will we tumble and clip
as starved and breathless among fireflies
as in the cold sloe-dusk? Will you wake me
with shivering in the honey-dripped dawn?
Will you remember the night I kept for you?
Will your hands never grow warm?

Solstice, all.

Gorgeous.

Thank you. I was in a state of massive sleep deprivation, so I couldn't even tell if it worked!
