45 degrees in May


it's 45° and it's almost June
it's new england and the saying goes
if you don't like the weather
wait a minute it will change
how true it is
the night slips way out of reach
down beside the seat
on the other side of the car
his nose is running
by the end of the tenth cigarette
of the night back wondering
how it could be so late
when he's got to wake so early...
