102 degrees is a person
Slightly fevered, pulling back
the bright white corners of the sky,
(swinging feet out of bed)
A damp palm leaving imprints on passing mirrors, a pair of ice cubes turning juice to pale foam in the bottom of a sticky glass
Reeks of sun, sweat, sweet sick rotten things…
Can we get an amen?
