Expel the summer

Banish it from my home-cave

Maximum A/C

Steam as it rises

From a whistling-hot kettle

Kisses my tired face

Easy scents of citrus

A sticky summer evening

Enjoy a cold one

What is that you smell?

Describe it, if you could, please

‘Cause I can’t seem to

Swirling sky darkness

Big, angry, and puffy clouds

But they’re not here yet

Nightly lullabies

From out of the urban din

Peace and noise at once

If by tomorrow

I have forgotten your name

It was not your fault

Send me a love song

Deliver it through the breeze

The Night Air Express

Seeking and searching

Lost in a dark, shady wood

Perhaps I’ll sit down
