A Deep Freeze

A tangled web
       woven tightly.
            They were
                 the best of friends;

                      two peas in a pod.
                        Jim and Pete's
                          friendship
                        comes undone
                     
                      over 
                   a woman.
                The woman?
             Jim's former main squeeze.
   
         A love triangle leads
     to...
icy amity.
