Analysis of Hot Again

Yep, the complaints have returned.
Days in the thirties
Centigrade.
Sweat tickles under the arms.
On the forehead and  upper lip.
Women pat themselves
With talc, tsk, tsk.

The workmen around
That big street hole
Flaunt their orange
Safety wear
And bronzed torsos.
Setting up safety rails
And conduit augers
For laying in pipe.

Two nine year old
Boys get as close
As possible
Swaggering in imitation
Admiring all the equipment.
And desiring only
Twenty minutes to play
MAKE IT HAPPEN, MEN.

Victoria Park setting up
For a Cultural Festival.
Music podiums.
Food Concessions.
Acrobats, jugglers in their open spaces.
Eager busking musicians.
Lots of cold water Dispensers.
Games of Chance.
Extra garbage containers.
Cash only Folks.

A copper in parked cruiser
Only chuckles.
He knows that the irritating heat
Will bring out some strange
Episodes.
Bracing himself.
AC turned to High.
And dash intercom
Announcing a knife street fight.
Down in Preston.
Three cruisers needed.
