Summer. Time to prepare<\/p>\n
For liquid influx. The concept<\/p>\n
of weekends. No bearing on<\/p>\n
Anything.<\/p>\n
We curse the humid feeling of<\/p>\n
organizing limited time. We think<\/p>\n
of Fruit, and removing seeds.<\/p>\n
Tedium.<\/p>\n
The barbeque is cob-webby<\/p>\n
and has rusty parts. I don\u2019t think the<\/p>\n
Steak will care.<\/p>\n
Salmon is better. And it<\/p>\n
makes the grates smell.<\/p>\n
Outside where the grill lies<\/p>\n
are furry things eating bugs.<\/p>\n
Cute but snake-like.<\/p>\n
The freshness of spring<\/p>\n
Has changed to skunkiness. The rain<\/p>\n
is never enough.<\/p>\n
Very few monarchs. I join<\/p>\n
A milkweed campaign. We need<\/p>\n
more of just about everything.<\/p>\n
But people.<\/p>\n
My friends go camping. If you call it that.<\/p>\n
Luxuries and electricity.<\/p>\n
Blue Jays. Lost perspective.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re a real bird. Aggressive.<\/p>\n
Catching squirrels. Re-location.<\/p>\n
Cats, with testicles<\/p>\n
That need removing. Despite the season<\/p>\n
the news<\/p>\n
hardly ever changes. We try not to be<\/p>\n
selfish about Death.<\/p>\n
French fries with Cajun spice<\/p>\n
Malt vinegar.<\/p>\n
Noisy air-conditioners. Not a breath<\/p>\n
of fresh air.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
