colder than cold
thursday morning
well past dawning
temperature
falling
was
below
zero
cold caused
subway and rail
delays
people
bundled
top to toe
all manner of clothing
keeping
them from freezing
hoods over hats
hats pulled low
over brows
gloves
under
mittens
scarves
wrapped around necks
over noses
boots covered toeses
no one walked
slowly
bundled
to
the max
as
i climbed the subway stairs
out of the cold
into
the colder
i looked up
look at that
wow
what a sight
bright as bright
could be
the moon
was
peeking
down
on
me
