In the bleak midwinter, it’s a great time to just lay out in the hammock.

Looks like a very inviting place to take your last ever nap, 😉
btw going to be 30C here today – that’s 86F in your hermit scientific kingdom 😉
In one of those weird Twilight Zone coincidences, a poem I wrote a while back satirising a certain type of poetry, has just been accepted by the exotically named litmag Alice Go F*** Yourself (I kid you not).
God ignoring the bleak midwinter
The bleak midwinter arrived in
the middle of winter
and it was bleak.
Not moor bleak;
more bleak than that.
The wind was keen,
not in that American neat way
nor like mustard,
but sharp
and bleak
because it was midwinter.
I watched it being bleak midwinter
but I don’t think God did.

Don’t lay too long, or you might get a snowburn.
