Out of the Cold

 

I was born in the storm

of an infernal creation

A lone pup on the cusp of frostbite

Listen up

my frozen bitches:

When you got no coat

shivering in the cold 

of yet another endless night
this harsh dance with consequence
should make a lasting impression
if you bother paying attention
to the eternal relationship
between cause and effect

It's rarely fair

So don't expect it to be

Injustice don't care

But it needs not always win

if we persevere

and take the hurricane head on

with the goal of making it better

a little bit each day
