::: hot heat of summer


(polaroid 600 images of backyard sun)




oh, summer sun.

oh, hot heat of summer.

blaze lovely.

you burn the life into me.


and i cannot get enough.


even when i feel you heavy in the air.

hanging damp on my limbs.


i want to soak in your rays.

wade in your shine.

dance in your fire.


as beads of sweat drip down my back.

across my nose.

behind my ear.


i relish.


you warm me.

you darken my skin.

you heat my very soul.


& make me whole again.
