The Heat Will Come

It's a cold one and the car got towed. One-hundred seventy-four dollars and ninety-six cents. Snow that crushes and slops at once. This is the only town in the state that has every kind of winter in one day, every day, for the whole month. This is the only state that has every kind of city, two hours apart, in the whole country. This is the only country. There's just one big country on the whole planet now because of the plates. They moved so far apart that they went the other way around and made just one country. There was a huge earthquake and lots of people died and so even though there's only one country there is a lot of space. This state is on the outside so it had only taken some water damage on the coast, and for the most part it's a lot like it used to be. Cold. All those plate tectonics and the weather hasn't changed a bit. People still have dreams and listen to music and get their car's towed for one-seventy-four, ninety-six. Everybody knows it's pretty fucked up, but they're waiting for the heat.
