Mad As a Hornet

Am I a hornet, 
Or am I a bee?
Here is a new sonnet,
I hope you read.

You shook my nest,
 And here we come.
Woke us from our rest,
You better run.

You don't know how far, 
Until we are there.
That's who we are, 
Are you scared?

As your running you can see,
That I am clearly not a bee.
