She is honey
Vicious sweet fluid produced from the nectar of God’s hands
Chased by bees as men who come buzzing in sounds of love both fiction and real
With proboscis as in-betweens dying to taste of their substance
And it’s sad enough that some honey’s are just too gullible
Too low to notice the sugar coated words as roofs resting on the fenced tongues of these bees
Some are just too fast to welcome these bees to their beehives
Only waking up to the late fact that these bees were never meant to stay
Dear Honey
How many bees have you let in?
How many bees have you let take away your icing
Make caricature of your heavenly blessings
For they have shredded you of everything
And all you’re left of is nothing but saltiness
Lock the cages of your beehives
Preserve the keys for these walking insects don’t deserve it
For you will know your rightful match when you see one
He will come knocking
As Christ knocks on the rusty heart of a sinner
And he will never leave for like a sparrow he has his eyes fixed on you like a like a civil servant does his salary
And do not be too fast to welcome him in like the others
For you both will lock the beehive till he pays homage to your antennae
