Polar Bear in the Fridge

gray0328

 

there’s a bear who stays inside  

where the ice comforts his stride  

his paws rummage through butter  

his nose pressed soft to fish  

 

he sits heavy among the meat  

slurps soda cold and sweet  

nudges noodles with calm hunger  

licks rice like winter snow  

 

a roar slices the frozen air  

we shut the door in despair  

how strange it is to share  

a home with his heavy stillness

    When you said bear in the fridge I thought of Klondike bars. A fun read that gives imagery to what is inside and accentuates the cool temperature inside. Nicely done.
