Fragrant sidewalk
It is
one blazing hot,
humid motherfucker
of an egg-cooking summer day.
Goddamn.
It is
one blazing hot,
humid motherfucker
of an egg-cooking summer day.
Goddamn.
Under the blinding summer sun
I watch the children having fun
playing in the rain
of a water vein
from a hydrant hit-and-run.
How it pains me, the sweet caress
that leaves red scars upon my flesh,
but our lovemaking is such I’m left
out of breath and soaked with sweat.
