i watch them whirring
speeding ’round with
different speeds and
different sounds
the ceiling fans
looming rather close
blades above my bed
i feel rather verbose
for they remain my
companions still
holding at bay rising
heat waves until
long-awaited hours
a wee small morn
signals them quiet
briefly and then
sun looms bright in
digits still rising
my once peaceful
abode fans plying
their high-pitched
white noise swirling
hot stagnant air
i lay awake listening
to their ‘HUMMMMING’
constant droning stares
a fever pitched night
a “FAN-DAMONIUM” scare

As you can tell we are now having our Summer and for me getting to the computer to post anything at all is dependent on how hot my office/bedroom is and lately almost too hot to do anything at all. The fans have become my constant companions as I’m sure most of the rest of the US have already had the pleasure of entertaining them in their own humble spaces.
