Many look for Aestas to come again
Thrilling in the heat she brings
And I do not deny her beauty here
But bask in it when I need not
Labor and sweat and thirst because of it
Yet Ostara is still a better decorator
And if she was not able to spread so many of her blankets
Across the weathered limestone floors
Between the oak and cypress columns
Carved in their ornate forms
It is only because Jack
And his unpleasant guest Uri
Wrecked the place and she
Had a lot to do to clean up after them
Housemother to frat boys so that
Her sisters and cousins and friends
Need not see again their depravity
Unless they pop by while Jack has his turn
And that does happen sometimes
