Fog On the Hills

I am a man searching for a place.
I turn about staring into a vista, just hence – 
just erased.

The temperature nosedives
while eyes wince.
The congealing air grows muscles, a brawny blanketing.

It is a young ghost needing to be revealed
in the cold-sweat of existence,
a fledgling elemental seeking form.

I can’t help but feel that I am just coincidental, 
not any part of what’s happening here.
