Ode To An Electric Fan

oh metal fan

so generally electric

buzzing like a wasp with chronic asthma

nestled amongst

a pile of useless papers

accompanied by my miniature LCD TV on which a

show is very quietly

making the room

a comfortable

spot to sit and lie atop my messy bed

and dream of something cold

like ice and ice cream

and swimming pools and slushies

and thunderstorms with lightning bolts and clouds and rain and thunder

oh metal fan

constructed so very long ago

and puffing like a train to make the room a better place you know you

aren't very useful

for banishing the heat

but you scare away the roaches and blow breezes on my feet

my metal fan

my metal fan

my metal fan

so generally electric

i'll never do away with you regardless if you break

and though you aren't very useful

for banishing the heat

you scare away the roaches and blow breezes on my feet

my metal fan

my metal fan

my metal fan

my metal fan
