This haze
this hole
no exit
no control
You’re sinking
stuck
no way to know
which
way
is
up
Crawling in glue
it’s deja vu
this returning hell
in its yearly spell
Unbending
neverending
it’s blinding
binding
not worth fighting
It’s incapable
of remorse
You’ll be
torched
scorched
in its force
It’s diabolical
straight illogical
Cracking streets
in its rotting heat
it re a c h e s
pulls
sucks your soul
It steals life
with delight
It’s not your brain
You’re not insane
It’s not the end –
not again
It hasn’t won
It’s just the sun
just the sun
just
the
sun
