germenate the budding
and crawl like a honeybee
like flitting flyleaf
in open book open window
houses and be domestically
habitually free

vines on the lattice
and singing sweet trees
hiss and shake and
tumble down up
your branches like dancing
we're flying honeybees

caught in the wind
we are what we could be
and we live and we die
and a one sting shot
is all we get from this
like flying honeybees
