We who hibernate meet those who aestivate in spring
Get together and in the break between our
Restive states…
Festive dates
May First a queen and lady day
And then again in Fall
Some Hallow weekend ball
Between the Summer and the Winter sleeps
A moment between realities
Extremities
In winter I am bedded in my clothes
Wrapped in down and comforter
Uncomfortably down
In summer I am dressed in nothing much
Wrapped in oil and musculature
Uncomfortably high
I am festive somewhere in between these seasonal phases
Two intermissions
Parenthesized by street borne
Phrases
Intemperate crazes
Dog days and Jack Frost hazes
Sandwich my sanity
