ambivalent autumn sage

it takes effort for the heavy girl 

to bend over in the parking lot to find the distressed bee 

just beyond the handicapped spot 

minutes pass as i  fiddle with my open case

she finds a piece of paper opposite of walking the plank for which to ferry the subject away from zillion tires 

she's sincere and oblivious returning from the store with a plastic stick of honey 

i ask if she's ever seen the movie vanishing of she says no and keeps up miracle cpr

she sets up triage on a bench as i milk the cosmos with a broke right arm and no lunch crowd 

she makes a spot of no alcohol mead on a horrid bleached napkin with the lethargic patient unable to roll over much less flap toward independence 

she takes the bee on the napkin to where the in security guard sits and says They're Yours to which he sez some people are allergic looking specious as per his profession 

i take the bee and dump it in the bush most respectfully 

and not 4 minutes later 

a bee lands two feet from my violin case, the first or second bee for miles and miles and inches 

the pear halve

 oddly the fire department don't respond to frisbees stuck in trees so 13 are gathered

under the shoe inextricably stucken up that tree 

launched abortively like a cheshire jester dangling down

after i profer a branch ensuring entertainment for a half hour as team effort and nothing short of a human pyramid makes mockery of gravity tugged by a rubber whimsy

amid a flurry of leaps and desperate jabs the shoe flies off amid great cheers certainly pleasing twilight and gods of futility ensconsed as a reunited pair
