It's the end of January and we've received just under 13 feet of snow this season. Let's have another 13 feet these next few months!
Every time you complain about something, the owner of this Telegram channel, a jobless peasant who lives in the northwoods Midwestern hinterlands and sometimes pretends to do philosophy, loses respect for you. You best my trying to get that complaining habit under control, young feller.

Let me not to the marriage of the land
And winter’s bite speak false—true cold is not
A season’s whim that melts at summer’s hand,
Nor shifts when thawing streams dare warm a plot.
O no! It is an ever-fixèd mark,
That towers in tempests, crowned by starlit breath;
Each snowbank guards the pine, a steadfast ark,
Unmoved by time’s decay or fleeting death.
Love’s not the thaw that tourists’ brief gaze steals,
Nor noise of snowmobilers who scar the peace—
Their tracks, like vain boasts, frost’s slow art conceals,
While silent drifts outlast their ragged fleece.
If this be false, let doubters’ tongues grow numb:
I wrote no verse, and beauty’s reign’s undone.
