Setting

Cold, I sit
Under this ceiling fan, on
Too high a speed
For Florida February, especially
Amid it’s fickle flirting
With spring, summer temperature.
My hands ice, if I could
Motivate myself to rise,
I could cull the man-made
Wind to size, but I am lost
In rumination, always too wide,
My aperture.

I write stuff when something begs to me to write. The goal is to write ten-thousand things before I die. I tend to be morbid, reflective and personal.
