In Heat MAG
Mugginess
Refrigerator air melts
To sticky cheese
Gum spots goo on concrete
Stuck to my shoe
The sole becoming a dark brown puddle
And you're walking
Fanning paper faces
With dehydrated dogs
slobbering
To death
And you find a jar of mayonnaise
Past the expiration date
Hair wet and damp
Stuck to the stench of the people
In that one elevator
Going up and down
And you think to yourself
"Doesn't that guy use deodorant?"
Bathroom showers in the dark
With dark purple shadiness
Watermelon faces
And eggs fried on top of your head
You realize it's death
It's hell coming to take us over
Then you see the stars and stuff
Toasting marshmallows
And bugs crawling
up your arm
Playing with ladybugs
You drown yourself
In thirst.
