Poetry: Heat

by Dane Isaacs

It's a little hot here
Maybe I should adjust
But it's alright

Whew! It's getting a little uncomfortable
But surely I don't need to do anything
It isn't that intense yet

Oh no! Now things are worse
Intensity becomes overwhelming
Too much, too much

A single sweat drop
Followed by many
I just can't stay in this heat
