the peak's ice beckons
inviting you to try for
the impossible places
the vertical palaces
your eye can see
that would confer
such a lonely splendor
if you were up there
as if immortal bathed
in endless light
a lonely feeling
comes and goes
in the mind
of the climber
then a kind
of exaltation
most unspoken
thus unsullied
***
