Hot Hot Heat.

What it was like
to live alone

in an apartment with no air conditioning

in July:

Taking all of the fans in the whole house

and pointing them at my face while I sleep.

Never doing dishes

or cleaning up anything.

Living in a cave,

because turning the light on makes it hotter.

Eating my weight in otter pops every night.

Then, just before bed,

having s'mores ice cream from the carton

while I read Anne of Green Gables.

Going nuts.
