Moment Frozen In Eternity

Touch
fuses
painfully
with biting agony

after hand
is grafted
into imprisoning ice

breath of life
dissipates as warmth
is distilled and dispersed

leaving body
clear cast
encased
for eternity

as a specimen
displayed
in unknown isolation

memories dreams passions
knowledge language personality
beyond contemporary scientific analysis
