Who Loves an Antithesis: Raise your Hand


No Body Loves an Antithesis.
 I’m watching bees and flies zip in my office window
opened a crack from the bottom and once in:  caught
by outside light, their entry narrow & strait & a voyage
into my interior would be dark madness as opposed
to enormous sky & bright shine.  

They explore their glass ceiling smack in the face of
freedom  buzzing  in dizzying circles and then settling
on the pane patiently exploring corners and edges over
& over  the way I look for lost keys & spam colleagues
crossing and re-crossing glass frontiers, steadfast & 
stalwart:  clouds and green sunshine at my finger tips;
no way but toward light more light I can see  and can’t
deny
