The
Coming Ice Storm
Wood for the fireplace stacked
inside and out
Sterno for the camp stove, bottled
water everywhere
Batteries, portable radios, toilet
paper, lanterns
The outside faucets covered with plastic
and old towels
Bedding for the pets in the laundry
room
Mothball-scented blankets disposed
here and there
The questions come as quickly as the
wind:
What if…? What about…? What if…?
What about…?
The day is grey and darkens even
more
As strange blue light falls upon us
from the north
