January Breezes
I hate getting in cars in the winter because I'm probably cold
But it's worse when I get out because I'm greeted with more cold
And maybe it's not about getting in our out of those automobiles
but the fact that this pit in my stomach is on edge when my nose starts to go numb
when the earth falls silent without insect hum-
From December 24 to January 1st the cold is acceptable
only afterwards I wish it was spring
and yesterday it was 65 degrees
what a tease
Screw you, January
