Heatwaved II
Sweating like an inappropriate analogy
another hot night
that goddamn light
still flickering
its mutated morse code
across my closed eyes
a random ballet
of light and dark
with each wayward waft
of my recalcitrant curtains
another hot night
but what do i know
i just want to sleep
i dont want to listen
to the weather girl
she is not helping
the fan on medium this evening
blows tendrils
of superheated plasma
across me
across my room
it licks my exposed skin
like a public transport pervert
it eddys
across my corporeal form
seeking my nooks and crannies
in a vain attempt
to dislodge the perspiration
but what do i know
i just want to sleep
that bloody light
stings my closed eyes
