'z' {Beard of Bees}

​​
i recall
when you used to sing
that song of you dying
from a beard of bees
a single sting.

"bees, bees",
you yell out
when you first hear the planes

the ground shakes so hard
the susuki trembles
the pink blossom falls
so i was born
in a time long before.

you called her 'Bee'
my twin sister, Bee
but you never ever once honored me

and in my
stinging
swarming dreams
you
dream of me
.
