Have you ever read “the arrival of the bee box”?? what did you think??

ordered this, clean wood box
Square as a chair and almost too heavy to lift.
I would say it was the coffin of a midget
Or a square baby
Were there not such a din in it.

The box is locked, it is dangerous.
I have to live with it overnight
And I can’t keep away from it.
There are no windows, so I can’t see what is in there.
There is only a little grid, no exit.

I put my eye to the grid.
It is dark, dark,
With the swarmy feeling of African hands
Minute and shrunk for export,
Black on black, angrily clambering.

How can I let them out?
It is the noise that appalls me most of all,
The unintelligible syllables.
It is like a Roman mob,
Small, taken one by one, but my god, together!

I lay my ear to furious Latin.
I am not a Caesar.
I have simply ordered a box of maniacs.
They can be sent back.
They can die, I need feed them nothing, I am the owner.

I wonder how hungry they are.
I wonder if they would forget me
If I just undid the locks and stood back and turned into a tree.
There is the laburnum, its blond colonnades,
And the petticoats of the cherry.

They might ignore me immediately
In my moon suit and funeral veil.
I am no source of honey
So why should they turn on me?
Tomorrow I will be sweet God, I will set them free.

The box is only temporary.

i donr it in school a while back and absolutly loved it!!, it makes so much sence (once you learn about her past), its so simple but its great!

It’s The DRAMA QUEEN Again With Bits and Pieces to my Novel….What Do Ya Think?

Clarence decided to wait in Chloe’s bedroom anticipating her arrival. He knew she moved and was carrying another man’s child which upset him even more. He dumped a substance on her dresser and began to snort line after line. Making him more anxious for Chloe to walk through the door. As far as he was concerned Chloe was the reason his life was crumbling before his eyes and his wife was in the hospital for an overdose. He knew he partially was the cause of his wife’s meltdown.

Chloe was going crazy trying to figure out where Lawrence was. When her mom went to bed she decided to take her car and go looking for him. She knew it was risky and people wanted her man dead but it was a risk she was willing to take. It was 11:00 at night. She went to his parent’s house who hadn’t seen him but they did tell her his best friend was murdered tonight and they were worried sick about their son. She didn’t want to go back to the hotel that they shared together because of their house being blown up because she knew the security he had on her would treat her like a prisoner. She decide to just go home and hoped Lawrence would find her there. She called her best friend Shannon because she didn’t want to be alone but she didn’t get an answer. She left her an urgent message telling her to come over as soon as she could because she didn’t want to be alone. She entered her home and sat on her couch calling lawrence repeatedly. She was crying her eyes out. She had to have left him over 100 messages ranging from “I love you and I’m worried” to “I hate you how could you leave me like this”. She felt a sharp pain in her stomach and a gush pf water down her legs.
“Oh God my water broke”. She said to herself. She heard footsteps coming down the stairs. She was shocked and scared dropping her cell phone in the middle of a voicemail message for Lawrence when she saw Clarence making his way down the steps. He looked like he had been up for days and under the influence of something. This was not the blue collar Clarence she had met.
“What are you doing here” she held her stomach in pain.
“I see you have changed the locks.” “Am I not welcomed here anymore Chloe after all we have been through” he shook his had as if he was disappointed.
“I can see you’re progressing well in your pregnancy”
“Where is your low life baby daddy?”He left you already?”he laughed hysterically.
“Please I need an Ambulance” Chloe cried my water broke she felt the wetness in between her thighs.
“And I need my life back, we don’t always get what we want Chloe”he barked.
“You sure are glowing” he stated removing his jacket and walking towards her.
He placed his gun on the table and began unbuckling his belt and pants.
“Please don’t hurt me Clarence I’m pregnant with twins” She backed away from him not taking her eyes off of him and the gun.
“Congradulations” he smiled which turned into a smile which followed with a hard smack across the face sending her flying onto the couch.He yanked her wet sweats down and violated her as she screamed in pain.
“Shut up!” he yelled choking her and raping her. “You know you like it you dirty whore” he pumped her harder. she was crying so hard that she began vomitting.Clarence was so lost in the moment that he didn’t hear Shannon come in. She dashed over and jumped on his back and began biting, kicking, everything she could possibly do to get him off of Chloe. His was much too strong throwing Shannon into the glass table. He quickly picked up his gun and fired one shot into Shannon’s head. Chloe took off running upstars. her tremendous pain turned into miraculous strenghth. She was thinking about the health of her babies. He was on her heels but she made it quick enough to lock her bedroom door. She ran to her window screaming for help as loud as she could. She could hear Clarence cursing her and trying to get through the door.
“Open this door B*tch I’m gonna kill you and those bastard children of yours”
Chloe was terrified but relieved when she saw lights coming on in several houses on her street.
“Get out of here Clarence the police are on their way” She cried.
He could hear the sirens. The beating on the door stopped and Clarence ran out of the house. He got into his car and scurried away. Chloe ran downstairs to her friend’s lifeless body laying in a pool of blood. Everything seemed unreal. “I’m so sorry” She cried holding Shannon in her arms. The paramedics rushed in and saw that Chloe was pregnant. getting her to relax while they got ready to take her to the hospital. The woman paramedic examined Chloe.
“We have a baby on the way right now she’s in labor!” She shouted to the crew. “Two babies” was all Chloe could say before passing out.
