The Paradox


Blanketing the mountain in a shimmering white powder Melting as the edges of the skis caressed it Freezing yet again when the artificial material loosened its grip Allowing humans to enjoy themselves just to be rewarded with chemicals. We treat the snow like we do our belongings When it has served its purpose It is destined to be contaminated.
