Sledding Wonders

Stepping down you clam the sled
in your hands, dig it into your claws,
then fly down on it. You flip your
feelings in your techniques,
grab a breath, then orbit the path, imagining
its twists and twirls, then catch its length
of distance around you. You dominate
the ice formation in snow, flap up
in your triumph in the delirious
position of light. You do it again
