I have been dreading the coming winter. Why, I cannot say. Nothing unusual has happened. I do not think anything unusual WILL happen. But, I'll still think about the poor Earth hurtling through space, tilting, turning, rushing into frigid darkness.

Yes, I understand that the whole Earth will not be submerged in frost. The Southern Hemisphere is now approaching its summer.

But, I'm not approaching summer. I will be submerged in frost.



It's so lonely. Not even Flaw lives.
