Epiphany: An Ode to the Cold
from The Viridescent Circle · host Kirsten Pinto Gfroerer
In the opening I say that this letter is an elegy to the cold. My mixing of ideas has brought in the feeling of mourning when I meant to praise. But perhaps my mistake points to a mixed truth. The cold puts us in discomfort, a trial we often lament, a hardship we want to end. However, with the intake of icy breath, the body calls us to attention, makes us ready for the end which is our beginning.
