SBUR
Always carry a heater Makes things easier These days, likely to get heated A more spiky version of Athena Sometimes, I’ll walk into a meeting bleeding Wincing and leaning, it pools, steaming, until I’m leaving In a sauna on the lower east side and, as kids say, I’m eating Hot in here this evening so…
