Arctic
Chill
We’re used to the damp
Cold to the bone and
Wet white stuff that
Comes and goes as
As fast as it snows
On The Island,
But an Arctic chill
Spills everything into
Cartoon caricatures of
Mittens, toques and
Oddball clothing,
People huddling on
Corners and around
Mailboxes like
Norman Rockwell
Posters, dogs dangling
Frozen will nots,
And what in the hell
Is with that guy...
Sandals, shorts and
A muscle shirt.
