Description

A Dream in Which I Am Playing With Bees by RK FauthA Dream in Which I Am Playing with Bees is a collection of poems made of natural imagery, queer metaphors, personal observations, and historical circumstances surrounding honeybees. In the aftermath of a fictional bee extinction, these poems are presented to the post bee reader as artifacts. Playing with Bees positions poetry in hindsight to contemplate poetrys natural inclinations toward building alternative worlds through earthbound metaphors.
