Winter Melt Down

Faces are getting longer, despite the rosy, wind-scrubbed cheeks a dripping daylight has lost its flavor. Tepid Malls un-freeze the warm-blooded, except for the usual geese in the parking lot who’ve lost all willpower to migrate. Murky puddles block-up public restrooms, clog rumors of any first flush of coming Spring. We are patient but twitchy, fat fog-addled puffer jackets steam on hallway hooks. These testing times demand more attention, which makes for knitted brows and longer faces as heretofore to mentioned.
