Attention! Attention please!
Little bee! I see you swaying
with the meadowsweet;
you gather its pollen in the breeze.
I’m sorry! I’m sorry I forget you!
Sorry I don’t know the names of more plants. I need an app to tell me things that my ancestors learned under the stars. I’m sorry I turned my back
to look at my phone.
Oh this terrible forgetting of the pulsing world!
I want to remember! Remember that I can’t live without you!
That we breathe together the exhalations of the plants.
And now you come to me!
*Bzzzzzz bzzzzz bzzzzzzz*
Your little vibrating body
quiets all thoughts to one:
Attention!
