Bees Nectar

A small vaccination from
a furry, stripy doctor.
I recoil
at maximum velocity.
A small
gooey thread
descends from its
head like some
malignant protozoan
syrup.
And I wonder if
perchance
this bee was helping me?
By giving me a quick
shot of bees nectar,
so that I might
live as long as he?
yellow, black
nature's artifact.
The rasping buzz
of its fat body and invisible wings
- the first sound heard
at the dawn of the new world.
