Weirdly Winter



Another Saturday suspended in th' greyness of 
an un-cabalistically climatic event, it seems like 
The Great Bight wants to play with our weather; 
while its ok in Summer and we’ll usually benefit 
this, for Heaven’s sakes, is th' last day of June, 
and we don’t need any more dreariness off the 
Indian Ocean to remind us we’re in a Continent 
where even Winter takes some getting used to 

But we did get some rain, a drizzly tad, tho hey, 
just what we needed to lead us into the halfway 
there feeling; & that elevates us into Spring with 
a beginning of that munificence explaining how 
and why we’re here rather than down the track 
where City folk propagate all those weird ideas
