and pollen each cell
is sealed with a disklike door
cemented in place as if
they were being buried and
like Pharaohs would awaken
fully furnished for the long
journey on the other side
but actually their heaven
is this earth in summer when
the doors fall off their tombs
and in single file
they amble to the exit
imagine how it must be
suddenly a blue vacancy
and then one is lifting away
