Bees
Look! Our storm-thrashed garden,
that parade of ants tottering
about on high heels waving rose
petal parasols: the same petals
in which yesterday I watched bees,
one after another—bandy legs
glittering with gold—
enjoy themselves, and which
tomorrow at breakfast
will blossom on your lips.

Condominium high-rises, God said, Day 1, and all of a sudden there they were,
A beacon in the middle of the soon to be city center:
With ten foot ceilings, and river views: a gas fire place and an already furnished
Living room complete with love seat
A kitchen aid, mixer, and sub-zero refrigerator: three bedrooms two and a half bath.
