 they say the bees are in trouble
      dying out
  then how can the flowers survive
  without pollen winged from one petal and stamen to another?

  they say poets are in trouble
      dying out
  then how can we mortals survive
  without being pollenated with words speaking from heart to heart?

  tonight my heart is like a probiscus
  probing sustenance from other poets' hearts
  as together we create a buzz for poetry.
