"Marsh" by Aly Gerdes

from a warm, southern night,

to a dark, sticky evening. 

from lightening bugs dancing delicately, 

to mosquitos attacking my body. 

from the reflection of sunsets on saltwater,

to the smell of bud light through cigarette smoke.

from mystic, tall grass, 

to short  cut blades.

you used to 

make me feel like texas in july.

now, you make me feel 

like texas, 

in july.
