Steaming, sassy, sultry,
she rules the hood.
Stares defiantly.
No mercy.
Sidewalks, front stoops
hallways and flats
simmer under her glare.
She dares you to be cool.
That sweltering summer sun.

Every day I get out early to avoid the hot desert summer heat. Every day I express my gratitude for air conditioning. Just about one of the best inventions ever. Nicely expressed, and excellent use of metaphor. Lillian. 🐞
