not afraid of the cold
at all and willing to be
out in it as long as stars
can be seen
someone has to see them
really do consider it
my night time ceiling
staring sky bound
thoughts tonight
accompanied by the howling wind
through the trees loud in the quiet
as if it has a voice or needs one
not afraid to be outside
a little longer
trying to catch all those
things that might otherwise
go unnoticed still with that coffee
late into the night even if
I only last another hour or so
what else should I do
find a show or movie to watch
get into a spectator sport
or just sleep until tomorrow
just not afraid to be in the cold
and thinking of the living
world all around me...
