Chilled



If the idea of a chilled wakeup is thrilling then I’m 
in the wrong hemisphere - and before you say its 
only 3º centigrade out there I’ll remind you it’s th’ 
same temperature in here; blocks of ice aren’t an 
evidential necessity or essential & nor’s a frosted 
lawn to suggest it’s bloody cold - relativity tells it 
fair & square; it isn’t ‘your’ body temperature is it 
so until sun fills in the gap, it’s a chilling dilemma 

Yet wearing a 37º all-enclosing atmosphere wont 
make one specially comfortable either - it is fairly 
warmish even if not deemed too unseemly hot; if 
it comes to that we’re not well adapted beasts in 
any respect except using subterfuge and energy 
to fill in that thermal gap our discomfort detects

For the record, it was 3º C at dawn today
