My first poem of this year :)

[spinkle]

This is my first poem of this calendar year Every New Year's Eve when I close out my journal, I get worried that the urge to write isn't going to come back again...and then I'm always thankful when it does. Thanks for reading
Spinkle
Excision
Rebelling in dreams
relating all things back
to obvious decay
frustrated by the urge
to conform willingly to quiet
climate shifting towards ice
certain to be burned
by exposure shown
as indelicately mistrusted
not abandoned but definitely left
failing by virtue of fault
displayed once frozen
(paralyzed by scrutiny
implied by suspicion)
permanent impression
replacing explanation
not grasping the need
for immediate assertion
drawing the lines of defense
hours counted to prove
the production of nothing
unable to promise
the return of passion
futile but busy
avoiding observation
settled in uncomfortably sedate
staring into the glow
bored and curious
about blindness
thus redefined as destructive
terms established
to bleed meaning
from one name in this context.
