Danger: Thin Ice


Danger: Thin Ice
watch your step
too much weight, pressure
may crack the surface

From that central point,
hairline fractures
jaggeding their way out
weaken the cold, slippery crust

It’s dangerous
 breaking through,
plunging into the dark, swirling
so-cold-they-steal-your-breath waters
 beneath

You could be swept away
never finding your way back to the
safer surface
