Word of the morning is ‘lucifugous’ [lusi-foo-gus]: fleeing the light.
Used of creatures who prefer the comfort of darkness, or who emerge from under the duvet and then decide against it.

In anticipation of the forthcoming snow storm, I've ordered hundreds of these babies out onto Toronto's streets this evening to spread a thin layer of blame.

It is December in Wicklow:
Alders dripping, birches
Inheriting the last light,
The ash tree cold to look at.
A comet that was lost
Should be visible at sunset,
Those million tons of light
Like a glimmer of haws and rose-hips,
And I sometimes see a falling star.
