Up Hill


High places are dry, windy, and cold.
Valleys are prone to floods and drought.
Mountainsides are the most testing terrain.

Redoubt Volcano in Alaska

When shifting plates scream,
Forests ignite mountainsides.
Matter liquefies.

Lava fractures crags
As swarms of ash billow out to
Asphyxiate air.

Hoarfrost sheds its pines
To be transformed into gasps
Of the wild, snuffed wicks.
