Observing the bees…
July 28th, 2009 by Kayla
He watched the bees fly-
one after the other-
down the long slender neck
of a half empty Budweiser bottle.
They circled
around the top, as though
determining whether or not
the source of the warm, sour
aroma was worth their attention.
Upon deciding
the bottle was harmless
and worthy of investigation
they effortlessly
dropped down inside,
fell into the musty nectar below,
and drowned.

Beer as “musty nectar”, awesome!

This is fun…do I want to know where the motivation came from for this?
I agree, “musty nectar” is a great phrase!

The poem is about watching bees…so I called it “Observing the bees”…because that’s what it’s about.
