SUMMERTIME

with its myriads needles the sun’s tattooed
summer onto city’s skin

clothes sweat on the line
and rotten before growing ripe

the afternoon drops shadows, by nightfall
there are going to be storms

in single rows, motors and mountains
march towards the ocean shine

above a stall of sounds, the day
zooms away

whereas on the stuck trains below hang
the drowned of the damp

and summer is one more passenger,
fat and cumbersome

that pushes and shoves to resurface,
dripping, stinking, gasping for air.
