6th and Spring - summer again

the air in spirit appears disappears stupidity abounds and with one handed commands a transportation person in uniform & white gloves waves waves waves "What Cheer!" P whistles and the pigeons continue feeding on bread nothing new here here the heat has dropped a pan over L.A. a lid to some 'thunder lightening' no in the present some are working some are at peace some louder screeching above this weather that "Stop the Buses!" stop the cars 'YARE' bring it down stop it! P pulls off his pants and waits much cooler breezes the pigeons don't care and the boxers are plaid "FALL!" you daughter of an insolent a drowned art a shell breaking down in a leaky row boat (not a packet boat) morality rears up and the officer's waving begins the rites of summer of dogs dead in Pasadena the cat hung and disemboweled by a serialist: don't focus don't swallow don't look don't sniff the air don't reach out don't wipe your ass don't spend a quarter don't die not yet stop the water running stop the burning stop the perished vegetables waiting alone to be thrown out does the sky reflect the nature of human intelligence would you use a cloud as a comparison or metaphor or simile to decide if P is insane sans pants or sane in plaid? the words can be simple "like tiny raindrops or mist from the tubing over the entrance" the tubing the drops the water contain a message P knows it drops water tubing and whistling yes a pirate's sea chantey a devil in the grass clothes water tubing drops the hand waves the traffic stops the heat rises the sails swell the aerial display is spent
