Dead of Winter

Bleak landscape, draped in snow that thawed,
Then turned to icy beads; a sky the same,
A sickening white; a clock which lies. It doesn't
Move, and I, immobile, looking at a plate
Of uninviting food, without the will or means
To change a life which feels so cold and bleak
As what I see outside.
