Is It Happiness

I look up at the sky. It is crystal.
When I get up, everything is soft.
Is it happiness?
I go to get my coffee.
It is bitter. I spit it out.
Is it sadness?
I go to work. My bus is 30 minutes late.
I begin to murmur to myself.
Is it anger?
I go to work. I am called to the boss.
I shiver. My teeth chatter.
Is it fear?
I go to work.
I begin typing, but a pop-up pops up.
I am not happy, but not sad.
Is it disgust?
