enormously hot

unusually rainy and then
enormously hot
sticky the kind of air
that's hard to breathe
every other day it smells like rain
and does but even the momentary
cool breeze doesn't last for long
the sound of the afternoon rain in the trees
might actually be worth every drop of sweat
adjusting well for whatever record
spinning end over end at times
avoiding a step deep into some pit...
