hahah, well it's an emily dickinson poem. i learned a few things about bees and their overall life..(in order to get an understanding of why she probably used bees in her other poems..this one's about flies)..it's very much like a civilized society..they have three classes (the queen, um..the bees who work...and the ones that make babies..hopefully i got those right) and they obviously go to suck the nectar out of flowers and when they go back to the hive, the "working bees" suck the honey out of their stomach and..ha, i forgot where they put it..somewhere safe, nonetheless. AND they use the sun as a "compass" kinda..they use it to tell other bees of where available nectar is AND THEY HAVE A DANCE THEY DO TO GATHER THE BEES TOGETHER AND DIRECT THEM TO WHERE THE NECTAR IS!!!!!!!!! AMAZING! ...yea, too bad i couldn't use half this info. (or if anything..i don't remember if i uses anything hah) on my paper, but meh. flies were a whole other story..disgusting stuff. did you know where maggots come from? the flies lay eggs on, say, meat..so most people think the meat rotts and magically you have yourself maggots..BUT files are the ones that lay eggs on the meat, thus producing maggots..and then there's this whole relation between the "lord of flies" and the devil..and flies are evil etc. etc. etc...and is this song you were listening to by the same crazy lady's song you like at our workplace? THE OMEN!!! about an hour to go.
haha hold up! crazy lady!!!??? lol it's ella fitzgerald, kinda in the billie holiday era, jazz stuff i guess, been trying to get into that or whatnot. anywho... i've always had a feeling about flies and how it's creepy that they land on my food, feels like it's just dirty. ugh, i guess it's cause they've layed on poo and stuff and then on your food. ugh. thanks for all that info, i know it's useless really but dang! it's interesting. hehe. i looked up the line and saw that it was from emliy dickinson. have you read any hemingway? huh! look at me trying to sound all smart and "pretentious." anywho.. this paragraph is purposefully .. grammatically .. incorrect. :)
