The Queen’s Love Letters

The Queen’s Love Letters

Bees swarm around her hazel comb eyes
Buzzing near honey glazed earrings
That drip splatters to her old love letters
Clutched in sticky stung fingers

She once was called queen by all here peers
Before kicked into the human’s world
Now she just walks from hive to hive
Peering into what she used to know

They sting her, relentlessly
As she tries to climb in
But she cards out the stingers
And tries once more

First goes the head, bloody with pain
Then her swollen purple neck
Slowly she crawls into the hive
By dropping the letters sent by her king

ThruOnesEyes "Why'd you do this when you could've done this?" Asks the audience.
"It's my poetic license." Replies the artist.

MauiWowies its my poetic license. When removig stingers you often scrape the sting with a credit card to sort of pry it or dig it out so I said cards

LastWariorPoet This is another decent poem. I am curious as to what you were trying to say in the 3rd line of the 3rd stanza since the word "cards" is a noun and you were attempting to use it as a verb. Did you mean carves? Otherwise, good imagery and inflection.
