course of nature

the weather’s changing

but not the way the world;

life

is changing

it’s getting colder which is not at all like

getting older

winter comes

and when it’s run its course

summer won’t be far behind.

Getting older, on the other hand

means something new lies ahead

and nothing can be counted on

to remain the same

much like the way Frogger on the Atari

was the greatest thing since

sliced bread

and now Frogger on the Atari is not even remotely as interesting

as a slice of bread.

why is it that nature can adapt

and bring back things

just the way they were a year before.
