In intense heat
I beat retreat
Into the shade inside my mind

Who put us there
Under that blare
And left cool drinks behind

A little ice
Would be nice
To cool the body hot

I cannot think
With no heat sink
So therefore I am not

The sun beats on
I will it gone
But spitefully it lingers

So dry inside
While moisture applied
Heavily from toes to fingers

Dripping sweat
I regret
Calling these people friend

If you "hold me dear"
Why bring me here
To my hot and bitter end

With vision hazy
And body lazy
I see a glass of water ahead

Cool water drips
Down glass sides slips
I think I must be dead

I think therefore I am again
As water poor through every vein
Summer tokin' can be a blast
But forget your water, it could be your last
