Thaw Out

An egotistical lingering ice storm overhead
a flirt with abnormally high temperatures
temporary abduction of winter’s bitter cold
fluttering of branches as leaves shed weight
discarded snowballs the size of a coconut
the frozen winter treat liquefied rapidly
icicles melt and splinter while falling
dripping nebular water like dirty cream
scalable runoff racing in conspiracy
the road transfigured into tablature
sophisticated furor over the timing
a quandary over the cleanup ensues
kids mumble over returning to school
a ski franchise braces for a dive
as everything starts to thaw out
