Or, Patrick,
it might be the thing to work up 'Sadness' as the counterstatement poem...
Everyone but me has known about 'seasonal affective disorder' for a long time,
but the dark long nights of winter have always explained a lot of human sadness,
I have been slow to realize, having lived in easy places.
Sadness's causes are usually more quickly discerned, though harder to deal with.
Too early in the morning here to be intelligent.
