Transitional Capital

In the thawing wake
of great glacial retreat,
we follow to find
in its recession
ancient energy
deposited
in earthen blood
for our machines
That is the great aim
of our gateway
to the north,
in this younger century
of greater warming,
until in the next few
we transition yet again
to mining from the ice
what is given by the cold
that we must drink (we must drink in)
It’s incredible
how many reasons
we invent
to celebrate
in the effort
to leave our homes
and defy the cold.
Some determine to settle
into these extremes
Others are just
passing through
While brilliance
is cast down
upon all touques.
We feel the warmth,
but only just enough
for fleeting comfort
in summer's kiss
bending to greet us
In distant orbit.
Soon enough we
and the cold will retreat,
but until then we'll plead
strength from winter's sun
to temper the weather
between transitions.
