always the cold

temple is frost heaved n'shifted
little cracks
welcome the cold
       creeping low
across the floor

the tired monk fights back
with hot hearth logs
and doubled wool socks

    Good socks can feel like flexible armor, a vital tool when battling winter.

    Also, I like the personification of cracks welcoming the cold.
