Apartment side

Oven hot inside despite

My ringbearer insisting she turned off the heating first thing

This evening upon her arrival home

We’re Irish and raingrown, both groaning “It’s roasting!”

Moaning non-stop, shirtless and sweating

I’d bet this is a sign of the end, if I did betting

The world had its day, nice wedding with confetti

But I don’t let it upset me

Now time for funeral fudge, the endless let down

You won’t need sledges or your dressing gown

Burnt so my dermal ridges hurt

Did the sun burst?

Inside the temperate compound, infiltration by solar ninjas

Even when blotting darkness pervades, stinging heat lingers

I wish it again frigid

Swapping shifts inside the fridge

Storebought cubes to ice her minge

Heat such that makes a bedouin cringe

Grian injection plight, Phoebus’ feebling syringe

Different story outside

Night leatherbound with stars wound through the fringe

Pleading, this boiler-feeling would melt the Sistine roof

Climate change the norm deranged, and here’s your proof

It boils the very roots

One moment there, the next gone; poof.
