light filters through curtains
covering translucent windows
as they move in and out with
the blowing air from the floor;
ceiling fans push down the coolness
that has risen from dead feelings
as we sit motionless on the couch
hoping for an end to it all;
cowards from the outside heat
we seem to be these days and
while wishing for an early fall,
we know we are in the middle.
