That tingling, that raw, pounding pain is the cost of coming alive. She’s subsisted frozen, a suspended non-animation for so long, the thaw comes at a price.

That tingling,
that raw, pounding pain
is the cost of coming alive.
She’s subsisted frozen,
a suspended non-animation
for so long,
the thaw comes at a price.
Blackened extremities
feel the pulse-surge
and scream in the flow –
but only the living feel.
Only the breathing palpitate.
Only the viable
thaw…
