Weekend guys perspire until the rain
then drops fall, without poured relief
warm as the vapour wets the skin
felt hot humidity until one rests...


cloth moths stick to circled lights
their labial parts ride invisible currents
until rains drop, drizzle turns to downpour
humidity peels away for more to perspire


humidity descends another day,
steam rises the next
the tropics inch to temperate times
weekend guys announce air's vapour content
moist misery with no relief until one rests...

We've had very little humidity
to complain about this summer
in my neck of the woods...

mosquitos, yes...

humidity, no...



Perhaps next summer!

It's been a muggy summer here in urban Montreal...taking advantage of my rickety balcony

Great write!  I feel it every day and night.  You should feel it where I live.  You can cut the air with a butter-knife!  The other day it was 96 when the thunderstorm came in.  It's actually been fairly mellow this summer only climbing over 100 a couple times.  It usually averages about 100.  Last year it climbed up to 109 with all that humidity.  You just about wanted to die working in the factory all that around you!  Thanks for sharing and reminding me of how great it's going to be again tomorrow (Yuck!) Just kidding.  Take care and appreciate the opportunity to read (and truly appreciate) this.

Kevin
