The movement of water under a thin sheet of ice
on the side of a car as it melts away
moves too freely to be driven
only by gravity.
Dark spots skirt the surfaces swiftly
like they're looking
for something.
Sad, chilly souls hoping to find an exit,
they disperse into drops and disappear
among the stifled red of the car.

It is very eerie, like the end of that movie Ghost.
