I'm fine. This just came, and so, I write...


threat'ning skies of blue
reflect'd from sun-seared eyes;
heat, intensified

to alert level
red; the temp'ratures rise to
critical levels;

tempers short-circuit;
!!!!     M A  D   N    E     S      S !!!! becomes the flavor
of the afternoon

and rules the darkness -
those behind the curtains watch
mankind self-destruct.

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman.

Mankind should and will I hope step out from behind the curtains to return sanity otherwise insanity will prevail and eventually take the ones in hiding as well. Great write and good message here Karla, well said.

Better from behind the curtain than from the other side...Keep as cool as you can, & keep the stinking heat down there where it belongs...;) Ed (not even the beach is cooler as I found out today)

Red is alarming but I guess when we get to white...we've burned up the spectrum of being.

It's h-o-t...I asked my mom about her recollections of hot summers and she, at 88 years young, says she's known heat like this many times and that we're whiners.

That's my Mom...a grand Dame of health and nourishing maternal wisdom.

Love,

Susan.
