to climb towards the needle

   To climb towards the needle  
precedes the descent into the abyss
the wise collar of the bearded man of oblivion
one hand bend
my blossoming soul
on the windowsill
elk sign
footsteps in the snow
to watch themselves undress
the branches of their honey muff
slow but still audible fall
tiny smiles dusting each other
arm outstretched towards the horizon
what does evening call
the line of light
announcing under the door
the return of the birds
to their nocturnal niche.
