Bees And Flies
Bees And Flies
Between bees and flies
There is no talk
Whether honey is better than shit
Dreams are beyond the sleepers
Follow your vision to fruition.
Bees serve a queen
Making something sweet
Flies live as parasites
Negatives subtract
Be an addition to your world.
Nature appreciates the bee
While the fly is a scourge
Annoying with a short life
The bee spreads
Something for life to go on.
