BeeswaxA Poem by bigfootprintI don't care until the sting swells up on me.I don't begrudge The billionaire Some capitalists View with envy. He plays his game, As do his heirs -- And the lawyer, And bride make three. But all must know How patience wears When honey bears Rob his bee tree. The bees swarm out But I don't care Until the sting Swells up on me. The billionaire Beguiling swears, "T'weren't me, call My attorney." Lawyer, bride, heirs With empty glares Insist with glee, "T'was bears, you see."
