Here is one to get you in the mood for summer. Note the fine little details that make this piece superb. Another fine work from one of Words' finest writers :)

Memoirs of Summer

Dastrix Slogan


as i lie in the zebra beanbag
slouching in the humid coastal summer
waiting for friends to arrive
i stare out the open door
out onto the triangular point
on the iron roof adjacent
that runs the green of the walls inside
washes it into shades of lime
and rusts it into brown
i watch the sea of clouds
tides moving slowly above it
and as the rabbits and chariots
rise, roll and powder
my eyes fill with blue
and slowly begin to close
as i lose myself
in the gentle arms
of mid
morning
sleep
