A silver disc pressed sharp and quick

A silver disc pressed sharp and quick,

coldness biting skin’s thin wick.


Fingers tense the rubber tight,

a cold star falling in the night.


The shock beneath my ribs remains,

lingering ice in artery lanes.


That brief touch, a frost that stays,

a chill between the heart’s own ways.


Cold chest, the pulse beneath the freeze,

a moment caught and seized.
