Scalding Shadows

Hot upon the skin of meaningless pity
Sweat rolls off my soul as rain off a tin roof
The sky is hidden by vapors of steaming life
Life not here before the coming hot upon the skin of meaningless pity, or is it piety
Looking up seeing hot vapors, no opening
Looking down seeing one vacancy left hurry
Furnished hot upon the skin of meaningless pity...
