The Sauna
The temperature is unbearably hot
My muscles tightly clench and I breath hard.
I can't bear any more time in this spot.
I could dehydrate or my blood could clot
Must not stay long, I'll be sent to the ward.
The temperature is unbearably hot.
The sauna's crowded - people I know not.
More time spent here could win me an award.
I can't bear any more time in this spot.
How much time have I spent here? I forgot.
Any more longer could be haphazard.
The temperature is unbearably hot.
Quite soon will I the sand-timer pivot
It almost reads twenty minutes forward.
I can't bear any more time in this spot.
I get up, out of the sauna I trot.
Leaving the sauna is now my safeguard.
The temperature is unbearably hot.
