The Two-Day Turn
x
Today is the day
After Labor Day
And the start of school
As God intended
The god of summer
And the god of learning
Negotiate
And merge
And tilt the seasons
So that the picnic on the holiday
Is sweet and sweeter
With only a bit
Like a zest in soup or cake
Of disappointment
x
And with the bittersweet
We sleep inside the hours
Of the change
Waking up to fall term
With excitement
Now with the zest
Of jitters
x
So the seasons’ wizened-wise divinities allow
So I think
They prefer
