Weather and other life events

Enough with the self-reflection
those that prefer mirrors to windows
tend to miss the context and current trends in fashion

and the years
were not all bad
in terms of subjectivity and the weather
and the idea of pairing the good and the modern
as if they were otherwise incompatible
may have had its appeal
but not to me (the protagonist)
and you may have spent the whole summer
writing something to that effect
but I'm sure you didn't believe it.

I will slowly creep towards the third-person
("I'm beginning to sense a general trend.")
and maybe some character development,
which in a fit of apathy he (the antagonist)
decided was a device devised purely for television,
but he's just being cynical,
and is actually very happy
rain or shine
and the weather
should not be used as a metaphor
for grander events and internal struggles
("Amateur hour.")
