Title: Fire and Ice: A sonnet
Author: Anonymous

Poem: Red glare grey tint Summer of my anger,
Dims and shimmies within my stomach wall;
Spiteful indigestion spoils hunger,
Bile of rage rises up to blanket all.
Rape of self quickens with a viral lust,
Then you, ice bitch, appear in my furnace
So I focus my hot pain as I must,
And expect you to thaw in my harshness.
But ice crystals form in my searing veins
And the undeniable corruption
Of your Winter glare stifles my burning
All my rage was just an interruption
What seemed as Winter’s cold seduction
Is reduced to Summer’s misconstruction....
