Poem
Exit Glacier
โ๏ธ
Peggy Shumaker
When we got close enough
we could hear
rivers inside the ice
heaving splits
the groaning of a ledge
about to
calve. Strewn in the moraine
fresh moose signโ
tawny oblong pellets
breaking up
sharp black shale. In one breath
ice and airโ
history, the record
of breakingโ
prophecy, the warning
of what's yet to break
out from under
four stories
of bone-crushing turquoise
retreating.
