In the summertime the sun pushes on your face. Any expression quickly drips off your chin and away down the front of your shirt and by midday everyone wears a constant uuugh as their head lolls back and forth, eyes meandering behind half closed lids.I watched the top half of a run-over cyclist crawl off the road screaming because the asphalt was melting his flesh.
I watched a flock of birds burst into flames and rain bubbly feathery char in a Wal-Mart parking lot.
I watched trees melt and air boil and glass drip from window frames and car doors.
I watched a lit match commit suicide because it couldn't take the heat.
Today, I walked around a lake, but didn't fish.
Today it was hot.
-Alex who thinks that 90° at 1:17am is stupid.
Yeah, but it's a dry heat.
