Le Vacance Pretentieuse: Poolside
Burning, white heat coursing across flesh
A honky no longer
Leafy flecks marbling skin like wire mesh
Relax and grow stronger
Silence attacked by Dolly Parton’s CDs
A boiling furnace
Darts competitions bring you to your knees
The sun only burns us
The water is contrastingly icicle cool
At night the sunshine abates
Trapped voluntarily here by the pool
Package holidays are great!
