bees

words we can’t formulate, 

stuck on our tongues

like honey

the bees are buzzing

as you try to speak, 

just

hold yr tongue and say it

then wash, then rinse,

then repeat. 

it is hot in here

the oven is

on 450 degrees 

and i’m thinking 

of the six degrees

of 

separation

left me severed 

from the brain down

and down you used

to go

now you’re too high

to even know
