Prompt # 8 “Air Conditioners are the Worst” for theguelfpoet April poetry challenge
You know that in-between time of year
When it’s too chilly for shorts +
Too warm for sweaters
So you ride - windows down
Breeze in your beautiful face
Bangs just a blowin’
You pause at the corner
Sun on your soft skin
And you laugh as you think
Air conditioners are the fucking worst
How do people spend their days
Caged in a cubicle
With no wind on their face
No sun seeping into their bones
Just cold stale air condition air
Flowing in
Out
Around
”Air Conditioners are the Worst”
