You say to take a poem
and hold it to the light
listen to the hive
and look for the light switch
But what if the light doesn't shine
the hive doesn't buzz
or it's too dark
to find the light switch
To tunnel, to delve
To seek, to search
To tie the poem to a chair
and beat out a confession
But there is a confession
Sometimes you have to turn on the light
cut into the hive
and use a flashlight
or even a chair or a rope
to find the greater light within
