Summary: aaah.... it was a good summer...




The hot liquidity
Of the sunset signals
Ribald conviviality
Against a bountiful backdrop
Of August Frivolity

Abandoned jackets
Casually slung across
The proliferation of
Outdoor seating

Pavements throbbing
Quenching the thirst
Of a sizzling sundown

Languid sipping smiles
Sharing the honeyed hysteria
In unrehearsed harmony

Eyes of extraordinary variety
Of shape and hue
Brimming
Sharing
In fellowship
Of festivity

Bring me home Mama
For this is Sun City.
