Buzzy As a Bee
some say maybe
some say gravely
but the law of older
age is that gravity
weighs heavily on
ones body my body
being no exception
so to mention with
no intentions or
meaning but
to man up
mainly my
sagging
mass
starting below
the neckline i'm
taking the time
to ponder there
where a woman
would have a tan
line if bikini clad
any time
in the sun
but mine
can never
sate a babe
but my babe
can sate me
sucking as if
suckling she
receives no
nutrition but
nurtures my
pleas of yes
please please
me
now
trying
to see if
i can see
my toes by
simply looking
passed my not
being ignorant
pregnant look
ing belly that
blocks the
sight of my
site seeing
eyes
not being
able to get
a glimpse so
i wiggle them
to just make sure
they are securely there
yes my world is not flat
visability an uncertainty
navigating by feeling
i find below my
equatorial belt
line my edenic
peach tree
still can stand
when it doesn't
want to slump
but the bee
hives hang
cautiously
wanting
honey for honey
not to be stung
i wear pocketed
pants planting
my single cell
phone in one
asking her
to text
or call
many
times
but not
to worry
my response
won't be by reply
my cell is set on
vibrate
