No other way to say it.
All ass first big and bounteous,
shameless flirt five paces away
daring anyone who’s anyone not to look.
Where can an EXTRA extra-large rump-shaker hide?
Hypothetically speaking.
Maybe.
The type of booty that secretly brewed
in enclaves of earth and fire
wood and stone
reverse osmosis filtering all the juice and joy humanity threw away
to brew succulence.
Mixtures of eye-catching softness,
tripped hints of Spring that blush from wintry weight
and hallelujah gluteus to the maximus glories around anatomical sculpture.
Worth. The. Wait.
Symphony-inspired flight.
Damn.
Bet all the other bees jealous.
Caboose plump living large domestication defiance stuffed toy levels love
in fuzzy adorableness
jus' going ‘bout ya bidness.
Unconcerned with being a hope harbinger to banish coldness for a time
and teach humanity lessons in humility,
and bursts of joy from first bumblebee season’s sighting,
and tears fallen for why it matters.
Every year brings casualties.
The instructions:
Focus.
Fly when told you can’t.
Fly no matter what.
Fly black-yellow-white patterned hiney in faces.
Focus.
Tell ‘em where to get off and throw some bum-bum into it
Nature runs itself.
We could spend more time watching and just let it.
As all creation travels in ways best suited.
Got things to do.
Tuchises to twiggle.
Children to giggle.
Others to inspire
by happenstance by fire
airlifting behemoth butts with a buzz.

Trickle Them Down, But Not Out
The thing about smart people is that they should know better, but alas, intelligence is not the same as wisdom. Not only do the mistakes of experts too short on vision—when they are not corrected—have the potential to do great and far-reaching damage, but they also undermine public confidence in the very notion of expertise. This is particularly so when expertise is wielded in defence of the rich and powerful as a cudgel against those laid low. As an academic, this lack of faith in “so-called experts” is painful to see as it plays out in the spread of dis-/misinformation, conspiracy theories, and anti-intellectualism writ large. But it is also an understandable impulse given the catastrophic failure of an economic ideology pushed by certain economic experts. Supply-side economics has shaped a broken system for the last half-century and has arguably done more to undermine the fabric of the American Dream than any policy framework of the past century.
