february first/on the winter scene burst/some are blest some curst

groundhogs tomorrow/are imbued with magical/prognostication

friday the 13th/february means friday/the 13th in march

other months making fun/of februaries call them/”shortie” “lil febbie”

an early sundown/a protracted sense of doom/to steal a soul’s heat

when a dog shivers/huddling in a bitter wind/your home is her home

holiday lights twink/and hot cider makes you think/cheer is a good brink

footprints in the snow/so you look up and fog breath/shows some exertion

electric blankets/make you feel like toasted bread/better turn it down

somehow meteors/despite incineration/look frightfully cold

you are a furnace/and it is your duty now/to provide your warmth

somehow Dorothy/became Aunt Dodo. i tell/you, it was aukward.

a hummingbird worked/as a dental hygienist/known as Numbing Bird.

blue-footed boobies/in throes of erotic love/act like the Rockettes.

the hood of my car/was sarcastically bombed/with two Mockingturds.

when the Pigeon/indignantly walked by it/flipped me a Human.

.

Fun fact: My mother really had an Aunt Dodo. I do not know if her real name was Dorothy.

Even can be odd.”
