Sing a glacial aria. Picture her—she once rode a surfboard ice floe ripping through solid water slipping the firn, making breccia wakes, scraping all matter of chattermarks. Harmonize a glacier-blue blush—she was whole mother of forward surge for half an eon, could not be stopped, shadowed the glacier that swept this same Sound. Now we cannot hoist her out of her chair. Aphasia—she forgets the second verse. Words freeze midbrain, coda becomes hum. She falls in a crevasse, off-ramps sequestering carbon—so much concrete we recant, we can’t watch icebergs calving fast ice. She slows—cowers shifts direction like a white wind rose, her petals shrivel in frazil. She lies—this is not the full story. Her tongue muddles in slush. Albedo lost, all reflection dulls. Once their song clamored. Now 99, glacier dwindle in cirques, caught in arête, retreat since the last ice age, since the last carbon storm. Janet Norman Knox Janet Norman Knox is a poet/playwright/performance artist who bikes via the viaduct twice a day and shudders beneath its mass. Her play, “9 Gs and the Red Telephone,” is forthcoming in Feminist Studies, the first scholarly journal in women’s studies.
