Whirr
A bumblebee
whirrs
It has its triangular wings
whirrs
It has its triangular wings
in the mouth of air
Slipping through past, present and time,
a bumblebee whirrs
Drifting through the condensed pores of air
Here,
a light, a breeze as bright
and sharp–
as a fang
The bones tuned to the orchestra,
grimly watch the shedding
Slipping through past, present and time,
a bumblebee whirrs
Drifting through the condensed pores of air
Here,
a light, a breeze as bright
and sharp–
as a fang
The bones tuned to the orchestra,
grimly watch the shedding
dust, the quarters
of lost sunrays
The bumblebee,
alone, marching in solidarity,
with no purpose,
only desire, desire both sweet and heavy
desire, invisible yet palpable
bursting similarly at the seams of my fingers
The bumblebee,
bright in the eye,
The bumblebee,
alone, marching in solidarity,
with no purpose,
only desire, desire both sweet and heavy
desire, invisible yet palpable
bursting similarly at the seams of my fingers
The bumblebee,
bright in the eye,
a spark shifting in
space
above the abode of
fuchsia flowers,
their homely heads
submerged in a permanent vacation from earth;
surrendered to the foaming winds
in the last of days
The bumblebee,
bright, sharp
snipping the air, cutting it into bosoms of longing
Until one catches the other
and other leaves another
And the body,
both seamless and restless
is cut and unified
their homely heads
submerged in a permanent vacation from earth;
surrendered to the foaming winds
in the last of days
The bumblebee,
bright, sharp
snipping the air, cutting it into bosoms of longing
Until one catches the other
and other leaves another
And the body,
both seamless and restless
is cut and unified
in a long, nameless song
Bumblebee -- Victoria Trok
