WET BULB


︎︎︎ Bernard Cohen

︎ July 20, 2024

Use me as a parachute

Unfreeze your assets so
your

Money becomes wet,
knees

Skinned on the side of
the road

Pour everything into
love

That time it was like,

It was like a drug
threnody

A singular voice making
a

Fool of itself and a
towering scream

Rocking a party hunch

Losing work. Something
sucked out.

A dead pool,

Three bikinis with no

Bodies in them

Dying in wet bulb
