Pri Madonna Primed

'Like the silence that screams, cursing solitude...
whispers of faith sing patiently with prayers.'
           (Quoted by Regina Mc Intosh)


Hung suspended from hive rafters hexagonal
Leader Lady Ruler Bee gorges imprudent
Heavy duty seeps striped desirous abdominal

Workers hover, rush beneath Queen exuberant 
Team enthusiasm pumps a syrup scaffold 
Propolis produces massed mission belligerent 

Numb buzzing bumblers fumble fated cuckold
Hunger for cohesion, gold body encompass
Busy anonymous paupers, sources unresolved 

Eager in sweetness, clan clustered accomplice
Reverently fulfills each gluttonous request 
Swift need swords stung in caustic redundance

Plump with pupae, flightless wings flouresced 
Polar iceberg cream honey hearts can't ingest
