numbed and stupefied, unable
to feel, think, cry...

Emperors of the Artic

Oblivious and orderly
they move from the sea into the frozen wilderness
Moving with uncanny precision
along the widest king's highway on earth
None to impede their path
as the cycle of permanent darkness...

I glanced beyond the hazy vapors
outside toward the isolated runway;
under moonlit sky giant aircraft at standstill.

Soundlessness indicates process stabilization. 
Every breath spawns inner veiled polarization.

Proceed forward, but remember those left behind. 
Your imperfections jostle you powerful and kind.

In Defense of the Witch of the West

In her, nobody sees any good
But maybe they really should.
Cut some slack for the poor old soul
Criticized for what’s not in her control.
