I Killed a Bee
I killed a redback spider Turned over a garden chair its fat red stripe connected with my fear felt the tingle of bloodlust on my tongue. I killed a redback now watch for reincarnations under every seat. *** I killed a cockroach. Fear of dirt my alibi saw it scuttle across mind’s eye from rubbish bin to lip of my glass. I killed a cockroach. Disposing of its dark glossy carcass, I felt almost purified. *** I killed a bee. Carried it from the washing line caught in the collar of my blouse. I shook it free but fear of its sting made me reach for the spray. I watched it struggle with the coat of white and could not undo my thoughtless act. A beautiful creature forced to a final clumsy dance the taste of honey is now tainted with shame. (c)Deb Matthews-Zott
