rabid dogs coming ashore,leaving us wondering
why we are here;
sweltering shade sweats
oiled bodies under
umbrellas as those who
are more brave, stand
just inside the water;
Christmas Carols,
far from the summer mind,
ring in our ears,
when ice cream tunes are
played out on back streets;
mental abbreviations
fall on deaf ears...
water beckons the over-heated
and summer
once again shares her
tanned fascinations with those
who want more color.
