Last Climb, 11/9/16

Last Climb

tortured white on canvas
bulbous tension, grasping arms
sweaty collapse on mangled sheets
— a painting of panted release
naught captured in the day
only cherished at night, under
guided eye and singeing moon
burned phrases into mind for lack
of sacrimony, testimony to the
act
and crosses stand erect
on winding roads near ruined homes
as we pass we moan for Moon
and long for Sun to die on peaks

of ashen, ancient snow.
