It was a winter night one of those january nights when winter resumes its whizzling ways and scatters its last snow and storms with desperate fury no spring no sun no happiness the cold snow spreads itself about like the boundless sky it rests its death-cold self and then the wind strong, fearful, and bold races itself to nowhere the snow spreads its icy blanket on man and varnishes him in dusty earth then the spring the trees the flowers slowly raise their drowsy limbs birds resume their chaos ants and squirrels resume their endless search for nuts and the grass receives the bottoms of many men. |
