UNCARVED block
Uncarved Block
By Pearcemelville
Blizzard frozen Ice
An Uncarved Block
Wind Howls a Cold
UnRelentling Force
Shards Sharp Hard
Pitting Slicing Hole
Trough Widening
lengthens onethen
two More a Score
Cuttingscrapingin
StripDeepdeeper
Evening this began
An UnCarved Block
Blizzard
Frozen Ice
An Uncarved Block
Night
Snow now crystal Flakes
Falling here
Floating There
Soothing Blizzard Scars
Dawn Dew
Morning
Now The
Carved
Block
