pt 2 of quaternion
sweltering
the unpaved streets
intolerably stifling
everyone
seeking cool air
sitting
enjoying the resite
from
the unusual heat
the past
called to mind
the inconvenience
the fear
to venture out
any capricious
movement
stifled
sucking breath
and perspiration
in torrents
tottering about
clothes fluttering
homewards making
under a clear sky
completing responsibilities
in the dry
desolate
landscape
till
it runs with rain
no one lives
in the house
abandoned
to seek the shade
until
the late evening
hours
this season
of long days
humid nights
the advanced in age
apt
to fall asleep
with
reflections
of an idle hour
