you ever been stung by a bee?
i was once
i cried and cried
all the way home
and ran into the house to find my dad
he was in the tub
but i guess i came in too quickly
because
he was just standing up
in the bath
naked
i turned away
to give him time to cover up
only to discover that the bees had followed me
they swarmed into the room
and went straight for dad.
that's when I noticed that it was just
a naked mannequin in the bath tub
smeared with honey
the closet door burst open
and my real dad ran out
with a lawn mower in his hands
he thrust it at the cloud of bees and
as we both watched
they were all shredded into a gooey pulp
that
my son
he said gravely
is the problem with this town
too many damn bees
