sleet
raze
they
predicted
freezing
rain
.
i
was
almost
looking
forward
to
the
kind
of
racket
that
can
convince
you
there's
a
feeble
apocalypse
going
through
the
motions
out
there
,
if
your
head
is
in
the
right
or
wrong
place
when
the
storm
hits.
but
the
ice
pellets
smacked
into
the
glass
that
lets
me
see
the
star
we
spin
around
with
a
lazy
, loping gait,
and
it
was
all
over
almost
as
soon
as
it
started
.
i
slept
better
than
i
have
at
any
point
over
the
last
two
weeks
,
and
though
my
dreams
were
no
kinder
to
me
than
they've
been
in
recent
memory
,
i
woke
to
the
sound
of
a
cardinal
singing
about
the
mysteries
of
meteorology
.
even
the
clouds
are
ready
for
spring
to
start
living
up
to
its
reputation.
