for children or bees?
Proper names, a particular
Hymenoptera. Let’s not have
common names either.
Forget nouns.
Instead we’ll go with verbs —
ruminate, prevaricate, exacerbate.
Instead of presence
we will be every kind of dance —
emanate, syncopate, evaporate.
In order to make sentences of verbs
all we know is how to scat —
hm-m-m hurries down to the
hm-m-m to buy some hm-m-m.
Alongside the hm-m-m the
hm-m-ms shine. They resonate.
La-la-la she calibrates
the da-da-da
so as to speculate
ba-da-da-doom
indeed to participate
uppa-uppa-uppa
ka-zoom.
She’s about to liquidate
whatever you might anticipate doing
all this warm
mm-mm hey-oh
shoup shoup shoup
doo-wah doo-wah
shih-h-h
kaboom.
