Lazy Meteorologists

In the weather
and aftermath of said weather
(not something to be foretold,
but guessed at by thousands
of lazy meteorologists),

we shall light the spark
of a righteous flame
and carry it with us
in our pockets.

You understand
that our pants
must be flame-retardant.

You may find such a garment
at your local department store,
wherever pants are sold.

Wharved.com I am a poet. I write poems. Titles and subjects and subsequent readership are all part of one fragmented figment of our universe, and it's nice that we take it so seriously. Hopefully the craft remains and grows stronger for our children. View all posts by Aidan Badinger
