...the catastrophe of my personality...

Now I am quietly waiting for

the catastrophe of my personality

to seem beautiful again,

and interesting, and modern.



The country is grey and

brown and white in trees,

snows and skies of laughter

always diminishing, less funny

not just darker, not just grey.



It may be the coldest day of

the year, what does he think of

that? I mean, what do I? And if I do,

perhaps I am myself again.
