In The Air.

Nitrogen, oxygen, and water vapor
make up the air we breathe so they say.
There is much more nitrogen than oxygen:
surprising really, as oxygen is vital to life.
Most mountaineers need oxygen flasks
to breathe and climb on the high slopes
of uncertainty winding to the top,
which attracts like a magnet
In the air.
Reinhold Messner and Peter Habeler
did not use artificial oxygen, though,
when they pushed to the summit of Mt. Everest
alpine style with lightweight backpacks back
in 1978, when anew courage, cold as ice, was
In the air.
