allegorically…
hyenas don’t laugh
for nothing…
wrinkled elephant skin
is grayed with preserving
purpose unseen…
in the surviving strength
of fire ants who though not
born black, have a pretty
good idea of what’s it like…
oh this may sound
like nonsense to you
with sensitized sense
questioning it all…
to me, it’s all
allegorical messaging:
give some thought
to a beehive
hanging from a tree…
