Ice On My Bullet You Die Soon As I Pull It
A bullet
Racing
downslope
twisting side – to – side
weight-shifting foot – to – foot.

Bright green jacket unzipped
whipped
by wind
Black thermal shirt unzipped
opening to reveal
Tie-Dye.

Shaggy hair crawls from under my hat,
and waves in the blow-back
I ride
I attack
the snow.

I do not wear my goggles
else I would not feel and see
Speed come come to me
Wind blasts at me I blast at wind,
and I blow through on down the mountain.

I conquer the snow,
for I am Ice,
man,
and no speed will suffice.
