It Was Always Snowing at My Parents' House and We Didn't Know Why

            At first, we thought we were trapped inside a giant snow globe and tried to feel around 
for the curved thick glass edges
Examining around us for a thoughtless leader
or an impulsive toddler.

We couldn’t find any evidence of this and so 
We decided to accept our fate
Dancing around a Rorschach fissure, 
Pretending we’d never get cold
Taking handfuls of the stuff and flinging it about
Embracing our inner child.

After months of this, there was snow up our nostrils
along the woodwork
inside our bed sheets
There was snow in our thoughts and in all our ideas
The snow would not stay out.

Then we realized….
This is what happens when you let the outside in.
It gets everywhere
It is messy.
It ruins your life. 

But, is there any other way to be human?
