The year winds down,
at the same time hotting up –
metaphorically of course, as
you don’t need me to outline;
and literally too, down here
in the Southern Hemisphere.
Our phones issue warnings:
‘Extreme heat. Severe heat.
Stay in place.’ Interesting
to see what survives
in my untended garden.
It must look after itself now.
I’ve got enough to do,
looking after my cat and me.
