On the Coldest Day of the Year the Ice Cream Man Comes Down Our Street Valentine

Is it ever too cold
for ice cream
too late for
an earthquake
too far for love
too late for lunch
is it ever too much
for you too out of
touch for you
all of us encased
in our high casements
that’s part of it too
and then the abasements
the abasing and being
abased is it ever too late?
