'Adults Only'

     Children skip and run
     sing and laugh…

       as if the anvil of humidity
       reaches down to crush the will 

            of adults only

Humidity is going up. The aged flesh gets easily affected and exhausted while children run and play braving the heat.

Some kids don’t like the heat, probably more since video games.
