Heat Tide (Poem #10)

Heat in the summer time
Is like a lethal weapon

Sun blazing like wild fire
causing a lot of sweat to flow like a river

Burning up in the heat is not at all
comfortable or pleasant yuh seet!

Throw a party of hot pot porridge
some like it hot, some like it cold

But summer rain won’t allow this party
cause we are on fire on fire!
