Yearlong Song Challenge, Day 169: Allison

Prompt: "A song about cycles"

Selected by Allison


"Upswing"
Prinze George
Prinze George EP, 2015

I just typed up 1,500 words for my year-end self-assessment (summary: still crushing it), so you'll have to excuse me if my words don't work so good.

It's been a weird few weeks. I don't think I need to get into specifics. Winter isn't even here yet, but it's hitting harder than usual. I know it's not forever, but the cold has felt unending. It's like this every year, isn't it? This isn't new; this is nature. I know the cold is needed. Rest is needed. Quiet, still, dead earth is needed. Not for long, not forever. I just have to wait for the upswing.

It probably always gets this cold, but the shock from kinda temperate to super cold this year has been real real tough

Feeling pretty spurned that you wrote 1500 words somewhere else besides PoYB.

Pay my bills and we'll talk
