HOT WINDS BLOW
The morning cool
Temperature just right
As the day travels
The temperature rises
Hot winds blow
Within the dwelling
The sound of voices rise
Anger flies from the windows
The temperature rises
Hot winds blow
Your eyes aflame
Hot under the collar
Point your finger
Just for emphasis
The temperature rises
Hot winds blow
Remove your clothes
Nothing touches your skin
Sweat runs down your belly
The temperature rises
Hot winds blow
The sun sets
End of day
Twilight in the desert
The Temperature drops
Hot winds sleep
Cool winds take over
