The tired sky,
so tired I
cannot compose these colors
to make a movement swirl.

Cannot see the shadows
that the shade trees bring.

Cannot find the street
of soft lines to your door.

Cannot feel the warm night
in this blistered heat.

Cannot find the time to sleep.
Cannot find the time to keep.

The tired sky, so
tired I
find this night in solace.
Lay along the breezy crease.

She said burn ... together.
