Snow obliterates all but the strongest,
those who can stand up to pressure,
shed icy grip
from a mind refined by practice.
These have seen it all,
and know the drill –
never bow to bullies,
never compromise principles,
never ditch doctrine
when the world goes white.
All but the strongest will collide
with reality
and lose.
