enter december –
unseasonably warm
between each polar vortex

enter december –
feasting on baked beans
& sausages for teatime

enter december –
may contain nuts
& hazardous packaging

enter december –
frosty cobwebs
on the footpath home

enter december –
crows caw in the dawn
your new ringtone

enter december –
smelling of z – list
celebrity fragrances

enter december –
having swam eleven lengths
& eaten their weetabix

enter december –
a photo of a solitary
swan on a calendar

enter december –
the undefeated sun
a greener in between

enter december –
& exit november
a ghostly bonfire

enter december –
sweaters & vests
& thermal underpants
