Cold air bites the throat.
Thick frost on the pine bough
Leaps from the tree
snapped by the diesel”

And set them up again for propping shut,
The widespread double doors two stories high.
The advantage-disadvantage of these doors
Was that tramp taking sanctuary there
Must leave them unlocked to betray his presence.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
