Cold in Savannah

Cold in Savannah is crueler than cold in St. Paul. That’s not profound. It’s just true.

It’s only true because I am sitting on a private porch. The cruelty of my discomfort is disappointment, but not a lot. Discomfort for the man in the park across the street is altogether different.

Cruelty is a human creation, not one of the cold.
