where I shop

It has been too hot to thrive
it has been too hot to drive

too hot to feel cool
weather fit for a pool

been frying eggs on the walk
ground dry as old chalk

but today something is new
cooler weather long overdue

I think up six excuses more
to not go shopping in a store

Prime has completely spoiled me
I shop in front of my TV

too cold to go outside today
I stay inside, where I like to play
