solo man
sastrugi beat your heart
the sled your life
up and over
ridge and trough
sky and ice
meld to white
muscles only
read the miles
ridge and trough
ice shelf sings
arctic sleep
frigid fingers flex
grip the dream
twenty-five below
up and over
ridge and trough
why why why

deep flow state
sastrugi beat
the losing ice
yield to frozen heart
