While Sitting in My Car at the Fairview Intersection

Waiting for the Light to Change

This would take an eternity

so I downed the windows

upped the music

and a bee landed on my wrist

pressed her proboscis

 against my flesh

and pivoted in a circle

Strolled a few steps

repeating this pattern up my arm

with exquisite precision

Curious, perhaps, that such dry desert

could emit the smallest wiff

of potential

I credit my body lotion

When she flew down the V of my shirt

I prayed the light remain red

She stopped to rest before

hiking back up, crossing my neck

to snuggle behind my right ear

Suddenly, she was out the window

Stinging me with regret
