Moon Creek Breakup
it was explosive
I looked up from my book
to find the white mass had caved in
it clogged the stream
and the creek gobbled it up
licking the white grey
smoothing it like a snow cone
spinning and tumbling it
until it had been consumed
a few minutes later
the next performance
the creek first more constricted
then more free
this will go on all spring
heat + light = thaw
all the frozen forms in this world
eventually expand to breaking
collapse from their own need to flow
go rushing headlong
away from where they were bound
