Vanity In Summer

Drip me wet, dry me In heat blazing from your core Summer stalks the trees Wringing them dead dry My veins collapse, and my leaves Pants in sizzling air You too drizzle sweat Skin clammy with desire pants Packing store, let's cool Fore we move again Through hydrant spray and crowd's glee Spilling pipes reserve My root journeys deep Beyond surface love, I mine pools From willing daydreams My tongue sips the dew Scorching the loins, shaking limbs And breasting day's rest Let us now retire The city's silence by sun's fire Come drizzle me rain.
