Sorghum is a genus of grasses, one of which is raised for grain, and others of which are used to feed animals. A sorghum mill is a building that refines raw sorghum grain into other products such as granular sugar or sorghum juice.The author of this simile presents the sorghum mill as a place where a large quantity of "flies" might congregate to feed on the glucose-rich plant and reproduce. Flies are insects of the order Diptera that possess a pair of wings and a pair of hind wings on the thorax.The word "thick" implies both a large quantity of flies and heightened activity due to the attractiveness of the sorghum. The author might imply that the comparable event is equally ravenous, highly populated, or attractive. However, without the context of the simile any further speculation would be hogwash.
