Description: NOW COMPLETE. UNLESS I DECIDE TO EDIT IT. For those who might care, I took the title from a "Leave's Eyes" song (Finnish band. You probably don't know them. Unless, of course, you're Finnish.) Albeit the fact that the song I took it from-"A Winter's Poem"-is a (horror of horrors) love song, I think it fits perfectly.
All is white, from the sky to the ground
Crystalline nether-world so surreal
An icy barrier is quieting all sound
The numb of the cold seems to heal
A scarred, pockmarked earth
The heartbeat of an iced mother-earth
Seems to pulse beneath the tree's frozen feet
The spirits seem to laugh with mirth
And dance-apparitions of ice and sleet
The hailing ice softens to snow
Dusting this dormant realm in white
Giving this world an unearthly glow
As if bathed in a nether-world's light
