Summer Turns To High





Mercury is rising still

Turn the fan on high



I won't step on my own shadow

No one wants to cry.



Someone put a pox on me

I spit in their eyes

Summer turns to high.



Lift my bed sheet keep in sandles

Circle search and there are candles

Summer's here but night is raising hopes and dragonflies



If those hopes are overshadowed

Cotton-candy, caramel-wafer.



Summer turns to high

Summer turns to high

Summer turns to high

Summer high



After wine and nectarines the fireflies in turn

Move like syrup through the evening with the sweet resign

I won't fight for can't happen

I'm preoccupied



Summer turns to high

Summer turns to high

Summer turns to high

Summer high.
