Hell Above the Tree Line

!
                                 hell
                               above 
                            the tree line
                          man digging in   
                        implanting spikes
                      deep in your rock skin 
                    chaining with ego's ropes
                   the mountain fighting back  
                with ice pick wind and avalanche
              sweeping ticks to the dark crevasse
            man wants to steal your diamond crown
          plant their skull and crossbones in your soul
        your wish is to add another bone to the brooch
