60 degrees farenheit

They say its going to be
60 degrees Farenheit today

The geese were loud this morning,
barking
in the sky
gliding past
the apartment

It was a long winter

Atrophy of muscular structure
change in molecular makeup
We let it happen

It was a quiet winter

Here we watched
While we toiled

It was a revolting winter

30 years
of enduring
the silent daily betrayals
erupted into
the small flames
of a fruit seller
those flames had children
spewing
their pains across
dialect
and terrain

It was a cold winter
We went in
and what we saw
was not enough
not okay
