Unseasonal

Unseasonal; or, What makes us thankful for a high of minus 10 degrees Celsius

And if it weren't for the cold, how could we afford
the real estate? Yet this February like a Pulitzer
winner: astonishing, unpredictable, heartfelt,
a feat. We nearly forgot the mildness was accidental

It's a mess, I admit.

I loved that last stanza the first time I read it, too. :)

I'm confessing that I don't get "Mr. Wolf". Every other word is great. I really like the sentence structure. Is that an odd thing to like?

It's so unfocused. I re-wrote it grouping the similar thoughts together. I dunno.

"What time is it, Mr Wolf" is a children's game where the kids run forward, stopping and starting depending on which way the "Wolf" is looking. Eee... the intention is to compare the game to the stopping of the thaw--the "refreeze" that come at night.

OK, I recall that game.
