Mad Summer Sun
Long is summer, longer the hours
like being under a heating iron
and the sounds, dull and dizzy
and the sun's rays, badly dazzling
The morning waves are boiling
i can sweat without toiling
my face drips without oiling
i am simmering in an open oven
Poetic vocabulary is crazy
mind bent on a rising mercury
when shall this time turn frozen
before i go wild and dizzy
I've never loved a summer
it beats my head like a hammer
it sounds like African drummer
mumbling a voodoo demon chaser
It seems there is only Summer
no other one than temper heater
i'm on the edge of bursting
better keep away from my volcano
