[hometext] => Skating is compared to one's journey in life. Also, I question whether it is impossible or possible to escape fate.
[bodytext] => Abiding, sliding, gliding on dreary, dismal, desolate ice I feel a numbing cold calmness, So calm its peaceful almost warm, almost nice The one warmth I can almost grasp amongst frigidness The devilish wind thrusts a breeze across my face It brings a chill of fear to me with malicious embrace It howls across my naked ears like a screeching band To survive I must flee from this sinister ice land I strain my eyes only to see bleak whiteness Skating in search of an escape from this sight Only to find more ice, more white, more hopelessness Blinding my hope with bright white is this icy blight Until bright rays strike me of a friendlier fellow However this time his rays seem quite mellow He covertly transforms the ice making it melt Giving me a sense of urgency so cruelly dealt I try to move, crack! But it is too late I know this is my dreary, dismal, desolate fate The almost warmth is now all that I feel Was it useless to fight this deadly ill?
