I’d missed the prompt from Frank Hubeny,
so decided to give it a shot here.
they see ice crystals
they etch a face
they give me a name
but that is not me
they etch a face
unaware of rage within
but that is not me
-I burn in resentment
unaware of rage within
they see ice crystals
-I burn in resentment
they give me a name
they’ll know when storms engulf the skies
I know I’m done, how time flies
I can feel the struggle, the anger. The repetition works very well in your poem.

I especially like this line: “they’ll know when storms engulf the skies”
There is a sense of the ominous in it. I feel time flowing as well with all of the etchings on my face.
