2nd Ice Age



"2nd Ice Age"


It's the middle of August.  I'm wearing ice-cubes in my hairs' dreadlocks. It's 30 below zero.  My nose is dripping and my toes are freezing off and running away.  Cars are racing downhill backwards and hands are frozen to steering wheels.  My fingers are frozen together and my ears are the color of a beet.  Roofs are covered in stalagmites and stalactites, which hang down like they were in a frozen cavern.  It's frigid like an ice folly’s follicles.  Radiators and thermostats are broken and so are records.  People are covered in extra thick blankets.  Those that can afford are close to a fireplace.  Everything is shut and stores are closed for this misunderstood holiday of ice age.  Even ATM's are frozen solid.  The homeless are praying in shrines of ice.  Lights are so cold that filaments are popping and everything is dark black to those who can see.  Most of them are broken.  You can't even light a flame.  Lips are purple and animals are frozen to solid ground, which is as hard as rock.  Cement is cracking, steel girders are buckling, and metals are brittle.  Faucets are frozen and liquids are solids.  There is no heat or escape from this arctic freeze.  Glass and bricks are shattering.  Mirrors are cracking. 7.000.000.00 years of bad luck in this ice age.  There is no sight in end.  Sound itself is distorted because the air's waves have been frozen.  The earth is full of empty silence like an empty desert or forest.  People are afraid to go out of their domiciles because they think they'll expire in the outside. Things have never been lower or higher.  I'm not a buyer of this hell's fire.  They say blood is thicker than ice, but it's no longer true.  The universe is blue in any point of view.  The world's not working right in this devilish cold of night.
