Summer hatred
Jul 4, 2023
he hates summer
he hates the heat
the burning humidity
it all brings him anxiety
he doesn’t understand
the people in this city
so tragic over winter and fall
yet gay with all of summer’s brawl
people don’t comprehend
his aversion to warm weather
“aren’t you from an island?” they say
like that’s supposed to make it all okay.
then it’s not the same
he knows but they don’t
it doesn’t matter anyway
as he hopes to go through these fiery days.
