the guardian ponies

siberian ponies
on runners of seal teeth
and penguin eggs
unpack ed’s shed
they unchain
a frozen husky
remove a harness
from the stomach
of a reindeer sleeping bag
with pieces of string
and mountain song
they photograph themselves
in 3-D snow glasses
wearing polar medals
being hugged by Oates
and Scott or knitting
dog singlets on the terra
nova 1910
they never leave
these photographs but stand
closer to ed
when he does
