Summers hosting a heated draught boil caster,
Mounted rays of sun pouring on earths soil
Abundantly temperate rises environments- brasher
Space satellite mounted orbits machines caster
The heat rays’ blast-- invisible blasters
Air conditioners hum a song boil
The third cloud on the right sets a caster
The boiling heat of summer’s burns the soil
--The temperature burns so
Environments place in time summer- blasters

Dog's don't stay out long
steam rises from blades of grass
my skin lightly damp
dusty keyboards
I’ve heard the planet will overheat
and roasty-toasty carbonate us
- but what is that to me?
Let’s mock the low expectations of the world,
abiding as we can, taking what comforts we can now,
in this lusty winter - what purpose would cowering serve?
There’ll be spring renewals,
I’m willing to bet
ice in our martinis
and yet other playful summers.
It’s true. that someday, our busy keyboards will be dust
and all of our affections will lie in tombs
but worst case scenario
by natural and supernatural laws
- as sure as an infallible God looks earthward
- our souls will be lifted on heaven’s wings
.
.
Songs for this:
And when I die - Laura Nero
Jesus Walks - Kanye West
Somebody Bigger Than You and I - Elvis Presley
A breeze of super heated love the ancients called it
At the forth angle trumped up charges bemoan you
Twas a case of of an eagle eating a chic..... cry folly
Cry folly for Roy was as is his usual MO a by passer
How can you let her use you're premises yet no pay..
Are you Roi for real threatened the pistol service Bro
Yes you are our Bro Intelligence son is you're not..
Not uttered as Kaayan and by it a pointed index mark
Where did the fingerlings who abide by fingering... Eh
Leave a Mark that Roi now you have to be roasted..
The wheels of justice grind and groan in the mean time
Co-Optation has never been sur-judged as a justice means
In Esoteric font Roi Fold you're wings.. Let chics Be..
Who said you have to stay in the form of the Eagle
A Leopard you are an African Black Panthre' On My Mark.
Too much change, everything’s different,
How do we live here in the present?
Hot air rushing in our lungs like a vent,
Contagious fires, bright and fluorescent.
Dry cracked ground like our hearts,
Slowly drifting away, all off the charts,
Icecaps melting with all our hope,
All of humanity holding on by a rope
As the sky cries for us,
A painful topic all should discuss,
Signs go up in the sky, protesting for our planet,
Controversy posing potential threats.
Choked turtles and sick koalas,
As our faith walks on broken glass,
Getting worse, not enough help,
Watching as everything melts.
Climate summer shifts solstice wind burn sees
Time earliest sunrise and sunset breaths
Radiant hot temp blistering heats weaves
Happens longest days the years solace sheath
So, twit spring summer and fall autumns draw
Sun Stilled, standing, or stopped sun shun shines bright
Plenty full leaves trees multicolor awe
Rows colors a plenty plentiful site
Leaves seasons of blessings, fruitful harvests,
Temperatures rose hot God's regardant
For our own sown spirits growth season glance
Period timed the spiritual stance
Seeds harvest cold heat, suns cease pinnacle
Fruit long as the earth endures, visual

Attracted to his accent and his lean physique,
he followed her home when they met on that street.
She didn't know his name but it didn't really matter.
Those large brown eyes couldn't look any sadder.
He spoke in short calculated phrases.
Their warm bodies meshed in the dance of the ages..
There are times when words aren't really needed when the
pull of passion is so heated..
heated Breath
David J Walker
In the beginning
I knew nothing
The end will be the same
Bourn of a single drop of water
heated by the breath of God
Odd the
mix of mire
Refined in fire
And I am Adam lying in the grass
missing a rib
A woman named Eve mentions
Honeymoon options in Mexico
The next I know
The boys are arguing… again
Who is in charge of this scene
It can’t be the snake….
Sweating body
Midsummer heat
Skies cloudy
Drying fleet
Caressive heat
Slick eyes
Wet hands
Body moist
summer heats up

Mist the heated air
Spread adrift the clouds up high
Swirling clouds cross casting shadows over grounds
Closing variable of scenic vibes
Questioning the humidity
Wavering atmospheric breathes of freshness
Dews in the grass lightly watered
Fourteen-inch mist above the waters
Ponds, Lakes and streams in front of me, mist the heated air

Ozarks are brutally hot
Heated discussions and disappointment.
August is a potential fireball
Backs are sticking to leather car seats.
Animals escaping from the west arrive daily
Grass is dried brown, our earth parched
Cultivation of garden is a pipe dream
This summer is the hottest in a decade
There is a bleakness in these hills
Tomatoes shrivel up on their vines.
A storm of sorts is taking place
Temperatures are rising, people are angry
It is not the right kind of storm
No hope of water, dew is scarce.
Heated discussions and disappointment.

I walk the heated grounds the sidewalk wales it's boil
summer burns it boils heat
raging is the air heated up to 100 degrees
sweat rolls down my brow
boils burns the summer heat
dripping down my unto my shoulders
ringing wet in sweat you think I've just left the pool
hot as hades
I can't wait until October the month its starts to get colder

The lawmakers exchange angers!
Due to heat they take cold showers.
Let me taste that of your rich flavor
Devouring your fragrance of love
Tenderly whispering each moment
Inhaling your breath of love
Capturing and holding each others arms
Your eyes affluent with temptation
Teasing my every thought of you
As a fine wine with many flavors
A soft lit candle enlightening my soul
Creating a magical wonderland of love
God’s rainbow with colorful laughter
With thought’s of bliss when we kiss
