Summer 2010
Heat days arrive with cloudless skies.
A sultry haze hangs evoking earthquake tales.
Sticky twilight mauve moves
another day, another month
another year passing
as sporadic fireworks explode
weeks before the celebration
of another date.
Dog dead days
bestir record keepers
to pronounce and announce
what few brain cells
have already registered ...
it is hotter than hot.
