| it’s snowing
first of the year. I feel like I should write about it something profound how beautiful it is cloaking the charcoal concrete pristine white flakes blunting the sound. but mostly it just annoys me. the heater in my house crapped out last spring the cinder block walls of my basement room radiate ice and damp exponentially colder than the half-ass half-functional refrigerator in the kitchen. wind bites my ears through my olive drab watch cap my fingers curl into a ball in my pockets as I curse the bus to work that passes by without stopping flipping the change in my palm thinking it’s about to stick to the skin. |
