Heat of July by Alexandre Ferrere

Legs crossed,
edge of bed,


red hot & white sheets
(hanging bulbs


are

naked

too).

There’s an invisible
man by the window,
breathing violently
in the leaves,
caressing
terracotta tiles
under which it sounds
like sighs.

The room is sprinkled
with furniture,
curtains are
half| |open;
living hell of love,
lava of saliva,
alone in the crowd
flooded by animals—-
