TWENTY TWO : Summer sun.

bright sun shines
in the blue sky
ebony figures
get burnt to senna
on the land below
stray fingers of life
struggle to burst forth from seeds.

fumes of incinerated mud
putrid to the senses.
a couple of flowers burn to smoke,
letting out a gasp of frangrance
that falls like death.
heat - radiating, swirling.
burning, bright sun.


one whisper of rain,
one breath of cloud
life will return
to the vastness of plains,
the sun knows it's death is planned

and brightly the sun shines,
until the clouds
bring solace it its thirst.

Quenches and dies.
