from sc 5

S
He postulates for snow - four times twelve?

Tr
Forty-eight -

S
- terms: the early hope
In vaporous ascent of adiabatic change;
Rise up to condensation level: super-
Saturation! The coalescence of droplets!
The aggregation of crystal cleft to crystal!
The hexagonal plates and rays amassed! The air
Cannot hold them! The niveous fall -

Tr
As when it's snowing?

S
Hail! O solid ball
Of brain, so unlike graupel that you comprehend
His drift precipitously!

Tr
You sparkle, but that's a dusty
Answer

S
Apologies.

Tr
Go on.

S
The softness
Which transforms our world: we look upon it -
We're ravished. Oh quiet blanket which melts the heart;
You voluptuous bed - oh yielding mattress entreating
Our healthy loins to crunch you. O whiter-out of souls!
The hard one, making an igloo for my lover,
The insulator of monogamous desire,
The dripping slop, the slushy pal who tells me:
Lend her to your friend; the promiscuous pack-ice;
The firm bank which beckons: "stick in your icepick,
Oh hot boy!" Such flakey promises! Frozen granulation.
The freezing quilt now sucking all your heat
Away; hiemal powder, heart-burning ice;
Firn, neve, sleet; promising cornice -
Now avalanche to overwhelm your breath
And snuff you.
When the blizzard's had its Oates, the death of Scott.
The polar cap.
Or, mildly: winter's bouncy castle;
A painted background for three hunters;
Preserver of doggy footprints; Santa's carpet;
Deposits from God we really should sweep off
Our path - or should the council do it?
Free kids playstuff;
Warm cover of forgetfulness;
The Great Eskimo Vocabulary Hoax - the Inuit's
Stock of thirtysix that Pinker claims
They never had -

Tr
That sounds like one to list -

S
Infusion of cold; entwining limbs and hooking
Tongues of passion; No two snowflakes
Are alike, John; block made of one word.

Tr
I think it's time for a meeting with Nick Ling.
Finish your drink. I'll see you later.
