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
