Vernal Anomie by Ed Ahern

Published by

on

There is discomfort to spring,
a molting of body and spirit.
Cold stoicism splintered
into unpredictable moods.
Ablutions in artificial privacy
exposed to daylight’s glare.
Active time bloated relentlessly,
suffocating cozy leisure.
Dressing is clothing roulette.
There is discomfort to spring.
