Thirst

Location

Thirst, irrelevant right?

Kind of like the air in the night.

Not noticed unless exposed.

Whether it's dry lips or undisclosed.

A feeling seldom met

until you're out of sweat

or the water's turned off.

Should you really scoff,

at the idea tha the water supply

may actually falter worldwide?


Thirst, irrelevant right?

Until water is a luxury,

or even a thing of history.
