What it is

June 2010: In a desperate attempt to stave off senility, the monkey began writing a poem a day. By summer's end he'd begun to run out of versified political rants and philosophical bloviations. Then he hit on the improbable idea of writing micro fiction in the form of Elizabethan sonnets. Eureka. The birth of the "Sonnets From Other Lives" series. Two hundred plus lives later, he's still at it.

7/21

the bee remembers
lavender

dances to say
here is the way

invoking a mystery
encoded in her molecules

that rules the shared
genius of the hive--

a gestalt that is itself
a thing alive
