This Indecisive State We're In



The furnace sighs this morning as
It breathes its heat to us.
But soon it will cease burning, which
Seems somewhat treasonous.

And later on this afternoon
The AC will kick on,
And it will reign throughout the night
Until the blink of dawn,

And then the heat will rise again
Through conduits and grates--
Yes, once again confirming that
There are some puzzling states.

Ohio, where we live, is one.
It can't make up its mind.
"Should it be cold or hot right now?"
Our seasons--ill-defined.
