when we thought southern winter was over,

the wind screamed "No way!"

and promised to stay

'til hell freezes over.

I held my breath

until I could no longer

hold it,

and when at last

I breathed out,

there was an

explosion

of poetry.

write messages in the sand
that no one can read.

O pronóstico de tempo é disponível
mas ninguno lo pode ler.
O idioma é audível
mas non se pode entender.

The weather report is available
but no one can read it.
The language is audible
but cannot be understood.

Avaritia, avaritia quae
societatem nostram destruit,
hostis principalis est,
sicut semper fuit.

destroys our society,
is the main enemy,

Una palavra
de vida anterior
dizer debo:
sicut sol, evolutus collucebo.
