Some call it the hump.
But I call it comfy, nestled, buffered. Cozy.
While remaining sober, thoughtful, and upright.
And clothed, which is pretty much expected around here.
Snowing now, with a chance of icicles.
All the hamsters are safe and snug in their burrows, munching nuts.
Leafs, flowers, sunshine.
All those things which, like love and kindness, have no value.
Knocked flat? Wasted? Put out of commission?
Or just waiting comfortably for the right time? Monday is a good day to decide.
The clock's up to eleven.
It's still ticking while the world is dripping. Plus wind.
Somewhere over the rainbow.
There is a rainbow. But we may have to wait for it.
