The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change-Carl Rogers


The peaks are the fangs of a beast

the valley his gaping mouth

if hungry or lonely this monster pouts

beseaching the sky to feed him snow

day after day his cries echo

afer a meal he weeps with glee

and the sky, no longer annoyed is free

the beast. content, sleeps eight months, around

but then comes fall and his roaring sounds


The author's comments:

I looked at the wasatch mountains and they looked like fangs, so I decided to write a poem about that abstract thought.
