Free Form

Summer’s Lease

Childhood summers
drenched in buttery sunlight
droning cicadas buzzing as if their
complaints might turn down the heat
and we long for something –

an end or
a beginning –
the future – an eternal summer
where we are grown but still kids,

free
but locked in this moment of youth
without the groaning approach –
the yawning reality – of

an end to now
