Hot Summer Heat

It wears on you hot summer heat still hot at nine PM just want to stay inside a hundred and three, a hundred and five feels like blazes Lord Almighty how I love the ac too old to do without it now actually am drinking water in excessive heat it quenches that dry thirst do everything in the morning, early morning by nine AM before the sun burns hard and savage Just want to sit in the dark and enjoy cool air go outside and the summer heat will melt you like being in a daze, sleepy, unmotivated day dreaming of blizzards and Canadian arctic blasts those cozy freezing frost biting winter winds how you miss them in the hot summer heat Hot and worn out, wet from sweat let the shower run cold for fifteen minutes before you step in, so hot the water in the pipes way to warm, takes time to turn cold let the cool water run over your head soaking your hair onto your face and be absorb by your overheated body And it is only nine thirty AM going to be another cruel long hot day in the summer.
