drowning

in my own sweat

drowning

i am where i am

because i chose

to be 

where i am

hour or so

we're on the beach

turn around

oh krap 

it's the city

i existed

but never

really lived 

in the city

fishing hunting

foraging gardening

just outside my door

keep me alive

the air so thick 

pea soup comes to mind

every breath labored

with every breath 

i am drowning

always entertained ideas

i would be 

in this home o mine

for the rest of my life

such a fine spot

to hang my hat

major change coming

i'm not ready

but i must move on

high temps high index

everyday 

of all things

weather is now

my enemy

extreme is the word

i've been hesitant

to use

i am drowning

today is mind blowing

forget frying eggs

on the sidewalk

the heat the humidity

fried egg soup is the 

threat of the day

we are drowning

we are burning

we are leaving

before we die

110 - 117 index 

today

mother is pissed 

we are drowning

i am drowning

we are all drowning

drowning in our own sweat

north to alaska

doesn't sound too bad

readily available

all the ice one could 

ever need

ya picked a fine time to be sober cowboy

where did i hide my thermals?
