Secondly August, September knows.

Secondly the weather feels like spring again
I've never been so excited about the pending fall
Who is keeping it from beginning, but the sun?
The sun refuses to quiet it's fiery shouts

But the wind will have it his way
Cooling off the cracked cement
Whispering into the shadowed alleys
Sending a chill down anyone's spine

And the September sky is brighter than any August ever was
Does this cause jealousy for the summer?
Perhaps she can let go easily
Yes, some seasons have it easier than others

Without any need for the hazey heat,
Summer surrenders and admits defeat

The city cools down by one degree
Birds singing again, from the stifling smog they are free

August ravaged the earth and brought psychic tornadoes
August stirred up the pot
Opened the can of worms
Let the cats out of the bags


August decided to take it upon herself
and create the biggest Change of all

And now September wakes up cooler and more collected
Calmer and more patient and wise

September speaks soothingly
sings sweetly, songs of serenity
blows a soft wind, cooling down the wound

when it starts to hurt
close your eyes
and blow out the air that suffocates you

September knows.
