SLC Inversion

July 21, 2017

Dark umbra throughout 

Vanishing perspective 

Tucked away toxic troposphere 

The day not gay but grey and glum 

 

Sun gone by long smog 

Overcoming the cloudland 

A dense layer of cold 

Under the blanket of heat 

 

Inevitable smoke fill lungs 

Effecting vulnerable organs 

Breathing in a sore throat 

Burning matter to sot and soot 

Immuring impure infections
