february is the worst possible reward I can think of for having made it through january
#you threw your keys in the water i looked down they'd frozen halfway down in the ice#they froze up so quickly (the keys and their owner) even after the anger it all turns silent#and the everyday grows solitary so we've come to february#first we forgot where we'd planted those bulbs last year and then we forgot that we planted at all#then we forgot what plants are altogether#and i blamed you for my freezing and forgetting#and the nights are long and cold and scary can we live through february?#you know i think christmas was a long red glare shot up like a warning#we have presents without cards and then the snows#and then the snows came we were always out shoveling and we'd drop to sleep exhausted#and we'd wake up and it's snowing#and february was so long that it lasted into march and saw us walking a path alone together#i stopped and pointed and you said 'that's a crocus' and i said 'what's a crocus?' and you said 'it's a flower'#i tried to remember but i said 'what's a flower?' you said 'i still love you'#the leaves were turning as we drove to the hardware store#my new lover have me keys to the house#and when we got home well we just started chopping wood cause you never know how next year will be#and we'll gather all our arms can carry#i have lost to february#<- this has been a production of Doth Reciting Dar Williams Lyrics In Tags#thank you for your time#and as always forgive any mistakes as that was straight up from memory
