winter’s solstice

the winter’s skyline

above the skyline

solstice

the sun it grasps

above the sun doesn’t rise here

it grasps

doesn’t rise far

far here

far

alive and dead

alive and the living moss

the living dead damp moss

the living damp acidic moss

the living acidic ground moss

the living ground grows moss

the living

grows sphagnum moss

the living sphagnum moss

moss, the living moss

the living moss

the living

the living

it's frozen

it’s water

thin water frozen

but bone thin

but there is matte-like bone

there is no translucence

it’s matte-like

no translucence

it’s no translucence

it’s no translucence
