 Some measure of fluid bygones

Erased by chalk dust the memnonic thought
Is not a pathway a gateway drug
To the rest home blizzard 
More like a snowplough opening the road
Salt rusts the car 
And the underbelly decays
You scrape ice from the windows 
And slide into a snow Bank 
But it's open for business 
on Xmas eve
And you tell the snowman teller to put 
The money in the bag
His rock eyes stare
And his carrot nose is well preserved
He says nothing
Later you decide to make a snow angel
