with the sweltering
heat,
in the hot summers in Philly
would
come down the street
and crank
open
the hydrants with a large
wrench,
the water would spring
forth like a geyser
into the air,
drenching us gleefully
with cool
water.
but sadly, one kid,
little Billy Macallister
got caught up
in the blast
and went flying
straight up like a bird,
we never saw him again.
