the honey jar

you can get lost
in an amber jar of honey.

holding it just so in the morning
light.

a world unto itself.
the thick
wobble of it all.

the color, the way it
slowly
goes
from side to side,

majestically thick.

a bee's life and work
caught inside.

and when opened, touched
with a finger,
then taken to your lips

you go even further into
that world,

a place that wonderfully
exists.
