Hot.....

[daidoji_gisei]

It's way after my bedtime and I'm frustratingly not sleepy. I'm blaming the weather--according to the National Weather Service it's 85 here, with a heat index of 94 (that's 29 and 34 for you metric folks)--this is Not Good Sleeping Weather. I can deal with heat during the day, but at night I need it to cool down.

While I am here--last week while searching my desk for something I found a poem that I must have written a few years back. I record it here, so that I can find it again, should I ever have the need for it. I can't presently imagine such a need, but there's always the unexpected.

First view of the sea
by a mid-continent girl--
Oh! It's flat like home

Oh, wait....
