From North to South

Amy's ramblings. Once upon a time these ramblings pertained to my 5 months in Guatemala and Honduras. Then they followed the ebb and flow of my final semester in Alaska. From there things really went south ... to Argentina, Bolivia and Chile. After 8 months in the Andes, I fell back under Alaska's spell … working at a newspaper and wandering mountains. Now I'm somewhat south again ... in Jackson Hole, WY, teaching ski school on the clock and making fresh tracks off the clock.

Icy eyes

Thought I would share this poem that I wrote a few of weeks ago:

A strange reality begun at the library
Alive, awake, impassioned
A gut of spewing emotion
Pounding like ash on my heart
Rosy cheeks, breathless
Strangled by the wind of my own desires
A wound still bleeding
Slowly, clotted, dark
Icy eyes pricking the life
that swells through my veins
