Underneath
Fell asleep at the wheel.
Wake up under seven inches of snow.
Frosted breath glistens on every porthole onto the gray sediment.
I hear
my heart pounding Let me out!
Spill forth to join
something unknown.
An ancient memory in my bones.
I take a moment to consider the world I’ve left behind
this unbroken seal of powder.
I find
I am smiling.
