Not Democracy
she is not a bee
but she beside
me becomes
the one
for it seems
accidentally
keeping in
side over
the winter so
they weren't
sown but
now do
house heat
break and
breath yet
naturally
become wanting
to seemingly self
knowingly lift
themselves
up and perhaps
follow the heat
flow of the
house
but these pod
people are next
to my pen so when
i begin or even think
of beginning writing
someone else ex
pressed lift and
with my pen
so do these milk
weed seeds but
i dream that
some night
asleep
one of the
floaters lands
on and then takes
seed in my right
ear where it was
allowed to take
to ear wax earth
grow and when
i awoke saw
butterflies of
a monarchy
reigning
over
me
