Before the Third

Walking home tonight at 5:00pm. A bit of light left. Between buildings above the sea, the sky pink fading up to a steely blue. A bitter cold though. A tension in the air though, waiting to see if its going to snow. The evidence is contradictory. The light points towards spring, and the cold drags us back to winter.
Have to go back out in a minute to Ems. Walk through the full dark past those places already passed by twice today,
