for now

there is nothing
one
can do about bad weather.
good shoes
an umbrella, an overcoat
is about it.
be careful
not to think of it as
a bad omen,
or what the future is.
it's just weather.
rain
or ice,
snow. neither fair
or unfair. these things happen.
as it is with those
who cross your pass,
contentious and ill willed.
embrace it all as life.
where you are.
where you need to be
for now.
