One Steadily Abusing

On a Monday in June,
in the highest, poaching weather,
Her elephants age.

Her air will season the ivory’s degree,
and her soaked, soaring atmosphere
blasts these heavy tusks and teeth.

Temperature, known as The Woman of Peak,
faces the deem of the animals
to rape its identity.
