The vegetable patch
drying out in teh 36 degree heat
Never enough water
glistening leaves will wilt
All desiccated
The heat that would attempt to wither people
unrelenting drying the soil a pale brown
A grey chewing away at last vestiges
of soothing dampness
Even the weeds seem hopelessly parched
Yet outlive the rest of the clumsy lettuces
