The Glacier from Evil by Julian Cubillos

Archimedes sat on the glacier
sifting thru the ash of the cosmik tides
for any trace of surrender:
a family, a sender

when he was alone, he was dangerous
when he was alone, he was in his prime
his family rang for a doctor
what met her shocked her

left me all alone at the glacier
never thought that she'd put the moves on me
i'll cut a hole in the ice sheet
and jumpstart the jitney

don't you ever mention the glacier
the chore was never the journey
it's more like forgetting

stop.
here it comes, all at once:
i am leveled by you.

i'm gonna know
how it feels
to become someone new
