                    		 see
            	the mute
fulminations
                of Summanus
   id est
         heat lightning
hear
                      the sibilant
    vesperal
                 of the dog-day
cicadas
                               smell
                 the faint
                                    attar
of the
               crumpled flora
     feel
                     the
 mnemic
                             warmth
                  of the
                               nostalgic
                    earth
                              taste
 the saline
                   residue
        of desire's
                            effusions
