Sun (August)



Too much cloud for the body of the moon to show its form. Cold ground in the morning, thousand cold roofs. Everyone dresses for August, the wool and leather. Sometime after grey daybreak the body of the sun glows beneath cloud, briefly, a reminder. Cold sun, molten raging explosion sending heat showers, gorgeous yellow. Our good-natured bodies are reassured by sight of the singular source of life. Though not so the news of heatwaves in Iran, record temperatures drying increasingly intensely the body of the earth. Our minds turn from August to February, anticipating Iran in our skimpily clad backyards.
