Sweltering Summer Heat poem - Libations Friday 9 July 2010
*** Poem and photography: Ever wonder "just how hot is it?" this summer...
Sweltering Summer Heat
The country is baking in a heat wave. Temperatures are rising high and higher.Trapped heat stands like waving fingersEscaping from the hot pavement in hopeIt can ride the air to a cooler place.
Weathermen roll out maps of restless red,Colored past state lines all over America.High hot numbers marking the worst citiesWhere people faint from the heat and The energy grid strains to provide relief.
Emergency crews rush to put out fires andHospital emergency rooms fill up whileCity officials turn off the electricity in Rolling brown-outs to limp past high demands;News media records it all, making you feel hotter.
People open their doors to go outside and Are greeted by a blast of humid high heatThat just takes your breath away, gasping.You touch the door on your car only to scream,Burned as you grasp and lift the handle.
Inside the car, you fumble for the hot knobsTo crank down the air conditioning full blastWhile you drive down the road sweating likeYou just ran a marathon standing perfectly still.And you ask yourself, “Did I really need those groceries?”
