Desiccated

burning outside in  
breathing in satanic dust  
how I long for rain  
pelting me with cold life force  
hydrating my soul

Author's Note
Update: This is the 2nd time it's rained after I've written a whiny poem. Only about a thimble full of rain, but I'll take it.

Experimenting with tanka. And once again griping about summer in Phoenix- but you would too if you had to live with dust storms and highs over 110 every day.
