The Icicle
July 19, 2010
The icicle
So beautiful and deadly
It surpasses the rose in every way
So unpredictable and uncanny
It strikes the rose with no delay
Not unflinching yet it strikes fast
The rose stands not a chance against this cold piece of glass
Not taunting but inviting
The rose finds its persuasions convincing
So witty and cunning
The rose knows not that it should be running
Not impatient but enduring
The rose watches it shimmering
So self-praising yet foolish
As the icicle assaults the rose
Not long-lived or insightful
Farwell to the icicle
