The Bumble bee Symphony (Also included in D Major) // personal poetry 2011

A bee defying gravity
is not a miracle.
the same for a lonely F sharp
short on staff.
Writing a single poem is impossible –

The discordant artist tightens
Someone grips the violin’s neck
In a crowd of nervous cellos
and bases. “Do you know where
she is?” They whisper as an audience shuffles in.

All of us are waiting for something beautiful.

Central Park spring a bee hums to himself
Noisily at his work, not concerned about God or any
ethereal meaning.

Over the microphone labored breaths pummel out
In static pulses; she’s made it for no reason because now
They’ve left.

“I’m not finished,” says a ruffled American composer
at the front of the world.

Now she’s found some purpose
without a sound – she finished this sentence.
The late night blooming is sadly beautiful.
