Towering alone, the
iceberg
Prickly summit,
daring the approacher
to brave the cold
exterior
cross seven seas and
not shudder
at the imposing build
of a
more-than-self-sufficient
loner.
The warm titanic
advances
Bearing the sincerest.
Bright lights, giggles,
prodigal lovers
Approach the cold
adversary
With careless abandon
The foolhardy risk of
imminent danger
The unavoidable
bruise to the side
The crashing sound of
impact
Cracks forming, spreading
Tentacles across the cold wall.
The slow thawing
process
That is replayed from
scratch
When total strangers
become friends
