Cracking Windows
We always keep the windows cracked
To get a little air.
Of course, we may then be attacked
By winter’s frigid fare.
But that’s okay – some extra clothes
Provide a counter point
So we will never, I suppose,
Be very out of joint.
Apartments get a lot of heat
Which often seems extreme,
Though window-cracking helps us beat
The dominance of steam.
