heat wave

Degrees
Of affinity, movement
On paper, in ether
and on board
Measure for measure
-text to some
elsewhere, a peg, an inch
and sometimes
a corporator.
Dealt out, nuanced
And the heat is on
Non-egalitarian,
it sifts and burns.
Banished rays
Conditioners
Planets transit
-the world's astray
Variant degrees
pull it away
