last on (our) dying lips
when
we have killed all the bees
and there are no circles
left in which
to live
we’ll
have fake food
a while
and
then
the last
words might be I love you
said to someone
though there’s
only a dry
Earth
all around
and
the only one to hear be weeping there
and so not unhear
and would not anyway
have
believed

World Bee Day
x
No be
Without the bees
(probably a pun
only in English
sorry)
Better living only
With chemicals
I don’t think so
We’ll poison ourselves
There are bloated
Tragic
Precedents
(Bhopal, Deep Horizon, the Valdez)
When we could cooperate
With bees
And live
Everything that can live
Be alive
Our round bears show the way
