out of habit do we seek a blanket a jacket
as winter bites creeping cold into our flesh bones
psyche suddenly realization dawns we are cold
feet cold hands cold as winter enters into personalities
wrapping themselves in layers added on taken off
as comfort battles fickle temperatures fickle sun
shining dim or rain written off as cold takes on long
drab winter woe shadows adding layers numb needed
to warm our diminished lives cold chill or freezing
