The Spirit of August

The spirit of August

Dances slowly across my tongue



The breath of summer fills my lungs

I inhale deeply and hungrily for that taste



Flowing powerfully through my blood

I feel August surge through me



Consuming my entire being

Erasing all but himself from my mind



I lose all consciousness

I am in the surreal world of eternal sunshine



Don't wake me if I'm dreaming

This is where I want to stay



Consumed for all eternity

By the spirit of August
