Thoughts on Late December

by Megan Guimbellot

You didn't think much of winter this year, I know///winter was all blues and grays with a hint of color on a good day/winter this year included:

lack of heating, freezing showers, and sleepless nights. oh and the riverside in November...

December is an aquired taste and I'm beginning to enjoy it, i do believe, helped along the way by warm hands and red wine///we've wondered lately where the fog rolled in from and I'm starting to figure it out because I've felt it's chill and learned my lesson//learned not to question what comes in the night because what's important is not where it came from but why///and (maybe) this is tempting fate but who really knows for sure anymore ( this season was important) and you'll never know.

You say "Winter wasn't much at all this year". and with a glance and a smile i shake my head, "No, no it wasn't".

There is an intimacy of feeling as well as descriptiveness. The formatting gives a stream of consciousness feel which suits the subject well.
