Unbroken
Mountain river less frigid,
frozen waterfalls crack
Ice spear impales torso
entering through his back
Perished upon a skewer
preserved neatly stacked
Unseen inside the ravine
a glazier starts to attack
Grinding away on boulders
down gully's, erosion tracks
His lifeless body still inside
is gradually turning black
800 years doing hard time
ice tomb at last goes slack
Releases a lifelong prisoner
Worse for wear, fully intact
