    This Is How It Is Today

    In this cafe, with dirt for wallpaper. The heat is a bitch, and the fan in the ceiling is the worst— turning counter-clockwise. Sipping on my cup of coffee and milk. Too many flies, buzzing, fighting over throne, fighting over food, fighting over fly-chicks. Whatever they are fighting for— only that...

    • Sounds hot and sticky. A summer day.

    • Chewing gum, or strawberry. My favorite flavors since childhood. 😀

      Thank you, Adira! Your comments make my day! “)

    • I swear I know these moments. Drags & weighs the body down. This is a doozy

      • Yeah. I am sorry you can relate to this. Thanks, willlow for reading! “)

    • Thats what it was called back then. “)

    • Cleverly penned, M.E. Relatable write my friend, we’ve all been there. Appreciate you.

    • Don’t want to be there but you forced me in this place with your detailed writing. DAMN GOOD! If you want an ice cream cone, go to Dampkitten’s poem “Poetspeak Sweet”. There you’ll find an ice cream cone and a whole lot more.

    • I apologize. It got to be written and vented. Thank you for reading and liking it! “)

      Hmm..I’ll check it out rn. Thanks “)

    • Yeah, they have bubble gum ice cream, and it’s gross. Also, have you tried the cotton candy green seedless grapes? My God, they taste just like it. Weird.

      • Bubble gum flavour id gross! I disagree. But hearing of cotton candy green seedless grapes, I think you are right about the bubble gum flavour in there. Hahaha.

    • LOL… I thought you were referencing my poem from the beginning. And now, I find out you like strawberry ice cream. OMG. By the way, is this ‘mosquito wing’ phrase an allusion to Smells Like Teen Spirit?

      You do realize that you could enter this poem in the ‘coffee’ poem contest don’t you?

      You will find this extremely weird, but the imagery in your piece is very reminiscent of the hotel scene early in the movie, Apocalypse Now.

      • Lol. I saw your poem after our fellow poet: visions_of_insanity’s recommendation for ice cream. It ended up another type of ice cream. Lol

        No. But I liked the reference. I had another poem that I have lost, where I referenced Nirvana’s Smells like teen spirit.
        Mosquito’s wings here symbolize inferiority. For their tiny wings comparing with flies. Idk why it came to my mind. But I used it.

        I didn’t know about the contest. The setting of this poem is in a cafe but the themes has nothing to do with coffee.

        I don’t remember this scene. I think I’ll rewatch it one day.

        Thank you for reading and for the comments, DK. “)

    • Powerful work, my friend.

    • Holy Shit, you won! Congratulations, M.E!
      Now, you see where mosquito wings can carry you!

      • Mosquito wings comes with mosquito responsiblities. The limitless ability of sucking. Hahaha

        Thank you, DK! “)

    • Damn mosquito…no chance with all those flies, just keep them off my ice cream cone.
      This is so powerful in its imagery…and such a disgusting place…I think I will get my cone to go.
