Home Mountain By Ken
Shiovitz Silently hidden amongst rumpled horizon, Acetate lain over with creamy gray slashes, Cloud or else substance evanescing with sky. Drama at a distance, Jupiter juggling its moons, Eternally dynamic, but mostly unnoticed, Until crisp night-lens clears to irresistible sight. Icy white skullcap fades back into vapors, But then re-emerges maintaining its space, Daring you draw close to prove it is there. But daydreaming, drive round a curve in the highway, The Mount fills your view as a deer on the hood, Exposing each glacier like a can-can girl’s rump. At once a threat, smoking gun, and killer, Also culmination, inspiration, and comfort, Platform, foundation, canvas, a pathway. Flaunting its age with magnificent presence, Mocks human ego, while affirming existence, Reminds that eternal here and there is real. |
