English Heatwave July 2022

English Heatwave

Sitting in this sweaty heat

The sun gradually growing nearer to me

Breaking records

We do not need to break

Airplanes unable to take off

Runways tarmac a little warm

Melting and warped

Amber warning

A state of emergency

We become hermits

Blinds and curtains closed

The temperature slowly grows

It’s an English heatwave

Sitting in my seat a little bit hot and sticky

It must be over 40
