Heat Nocturnal


There isn't a real difference when they say it's summer in the city, as far as this part of the world is concerned. It's either rainy, or scorching hot. These days, it's scorching hot. And where the heat doesn't kill, it sure takes the mickey out of you indoors, causing you to take either a ridiculous number of baths, or just makes it plain uncomfortable for you (for those of us who don't have the benefits of a not so modern invention - the air conditioner. So the tendency is that, you stay indoors most of the time, and turn to some plastic addiction hoping to weather this searing madness.
To make matters worse, you run into a fruit, hailed as the "King" of fruits, that proves irresistable, especially if it is the wild sort...

...and so I juxtapose a tank (ok, a representation of one) and a durian (ok, a section of it), and realise that they are related in more ways than one...in principle...well, albeit remotely.
