“…jung and easily freudened.“
James Joyce, Punagain’s Wake

Incoming!

Spring’s the most aggressive season
gagging us beyond all reason.
Sunshine’s closer and it warms us
but its power soon bombards us
with exploding spores and buds
nourished by old winter’s muds
raising sap in waking trees
teenaged kids above their knees
and geezers fighting beyond reason
to raise their lances one more season.
