Everest

EVEREST pinnacle of insanity only halfway home so cold nerves numb not a vacation spot near heaven, but not! deadmen tucked into beds of ice and crevices brain swell while they sleepwalk zombies rise ever higher certain to hear trumpets of angels even the guides are thrown down steeples are strenuous climbs 8/27/2017
