pool reflecting, brown eyes muddy the sky ~
through the open window whir of air conditioners ~
headphones in, I watch the rain ~
chill on the lake a lone loon summons the fog ~
heat wave– under the covers with cold toes ~
summer rain, lovers search for a place to hide ~
oppressive heat– the light-deprived houseplant has cool leaves ~
some dressed for the sun others, more pessimistic which of us is right?
