8,000 (In a Bee's Eye) - Bruce V. Bracken's All-Purpose Poetry Thing

Multiply me by 8,000
Like light between mirrors
Lightning in prisms

Let me be the fatal sting
I'll die 8,000 deaths
You'll live 8,000 years

How this must look in a bee's eye

Let our towers collide
I will swim in your nerves
Like lightning in prisms
Light between mirrors

Let me be the fatal sting
I'll die 8,000 deaths
You'll live 8,000 years

How this must look in a bee's eye

Like a fish to an anemone
Pull me into your sea
Toxin my ecstasy
Give me the fatal sting
Let me disintegrate
To swim in your nerves
Like light between mirrors
Lightning in prisms

How this must look in a bee's eye
