Polar Vortex

The arctic 
a wet dog 
shaking off the cold

Winter 
a feral dog 
won’t do what it’s told

The b*tch is 
it’s happening 
exactly as foretold

Last stanza is hard-hitting Mo. Nice penning! :)

Maureen, we're playing with something much bigger than our leadership in the US cares to consider. We think they know about these consequences but simply don't care if they can make a lot of money right now.
