My little champion, Staccato-eloquent, My ventriloquist of skeleton Stalks, you: fuzz-affluent
Against the broken prism December dandles when the snow is still. Shy profiteer of schism, You preach relinquishment along my windowsill.
Strip! Strip! Strip! You cheep. The only luxury is in the chill; The only perch of rest is in the steep Crystal dissolution of the will.
I hear you chirp in sleety hiddenness, In occultation most articulate. The coldest joy's what you most bless; In pizzicato whispering, asseverate.
The chirp you hurl defines humility As something almost savage in its swoop. Discalced against December, Chickadee, You snap the frozen seed-husks as you stoop.
