High: 27° / Low: 16° — Dude Weather Subscribe to Secrets Minneapolis / St. Paul

October, before it had
a name. Still, though, a month of
low iron skies and protracted
sulks and cold rain and bursts
of crisp radiance that never
lost their ability to
dazzle and surprise.
A flash of revelation
even as the hammer fell:
We will miss this world
when it's gone, or
when we are.
Same difference.
