blood on snow is striking /
drench of a falling stain /
webbed drops losing their /
richness in last night’s /
late winter fury /
linger on the sparkle popping /
in random patterns as the head shifts /
the contrast is so pronounced /
bodily drip red and blank inarguable whiteness /
a stinging focus struck pointedly /
tiny twist pulling a canvas down /
the depth of February’s nondescript /
only frames blood’s pinning release
