Stir the Hornets’ nest
see buzz
anger
irritation
from repose
they are not happy
and they look for the cause
with a stick in hand
they can see
and understand
(evidence that insects think)
they nosedive
in violence
hurl
their sharp fangs
in surface
which you call skin
now they are on the attack
one or many
catch you unawares
after a while
you run
leaving the battlefield
and you have lived the phrase
‘disturbing a hornets’ nest’.!
