The Jolly Bee...

they say
love will always stay

based on the
experience of the
jolly bee
it is not at all
true

there are chickens
in love
at first they cackle
but then
they do not hatch
their eggs at
all

there are words
that touch
and go

there are options
unthought of

there are
empty
hollow words
without
any weight

there are nights
without days....
