Get Close Enough and You Can Hear The Crackling

It's cold
but that's okay
most hells are hot.
In the chest lives
an ice sculpture
something similar
to the human heart.
It does not beat
it's expanding
and contracting
from the deep freeze.
No breath, it's more
of a brisk breeze.
No death
it's just a cool release.

Sublime into vapour.
