An Extra Day in February

Constructed
to keep a beat
close the door
on all those

     spinning galaxies
a little planet
    flying through space

way too much for philosophy,
even the Magus Prospero
throws his powerful staff
into the sea.

Yet, here we are
our bonus day held
in an electronic net,
windy,
some morning showers
followed by sunshine
and
a lovely afternoon.
