The Bee Tree
We have a bee tree
in our front yard.
The bees swarm
around the hive
by the thousands
all trying to get
into one opening.
Like all the thousands
of things I try
to accomplish
in the moments
of a day,
trying to fit them
into the one opening.
How were we ever fooled
into worshipping a man?
Like those bees,
working tirelessly
for their queen,
everything natural worships
woman.
Now don’t get me wrong,
I like the idea of men being worshipped,
of course!
Unfortunately for we men,
nature overwhelmingly proves otherwise.
