Love Icily Visible
Bones and twigs and a perilous ascent
Seemly topics for my last lament
A skinny thin trail, with no end in sight
I search in vain by candle-light
Snow and ice, and a sled without runners
A goal is scored, just for the Gunners
Rusted skates at the bottom of a pond
Such is life in the Slough of Despond
Such is life in the bottom of the net
- It's cold, it's dark, it's very wet
Twigs and bones and a terminal decline
- Here we are at the end of the line.
