watch thumbs fumbling,
no fancy flight for
this stumble
bee,
her wings and me-
a gnarl of sparks
and wires,
my stinger wedged
under hem of
moth bit
dress
the sourest dew coats
pane’s glossy
gaze,
+++
if our weary queen can
settle her pulse and
bubbling mind.
midst mad buzz
vibrating the
hive..
she’ll find that
honey rose
in time.

and it’ll sip like wine, green from the vine
kissed by breeze of
mourning,
a hello to life and
good morning.
