Ace of Spades

What a vicious smell
this evening,
on the Queen Street
Streetcar.

The so called snowstorm
that the weather forecasters
have forecast today,
has made everything rather damp.

People seem to forget,
that when there is major snow,
the temperature is generally
close to zero Celsius.

On these days when there
is major snowfall,
people wear their heaviest
winter clothing,
and end up sweating under it all.

And to make matters worse,
the heaters on the Streetcar
were making it very warm,
and the ventilation seemed
not to work.

Things smelled
pretty raw.
Like wet dogs.
With wet down filled
coats.
