The hummingbird floats to feed
As the pink pellets form their protective shield
Honey is brought forth as an offering
To appease the sweetness that surrounds
All that is found in the depths of origin

Two thousand beats per minute
To hover stationary in an imaginary position
Where flight is exact, and precise, as previously envisioned
And this glide is executed with astounding precision
The dance of life is thus commissioned
The butterfly changes its shape as a voyeur
An enticing exhibition
A colorful scheme of critical intervention
And so the page is turned with no anticipation

Signifying a change on the horizon
The species converge and rule out a unitary alignment
They fear moral bankruptcy
And knowledge-based consignment
Eclectic, narrow-mindedness,
They chooses dirt over sophisticated refinement
The hummingbird gathers the domestic butterfly
And together they leave heaven far behind them

jyss..
the first stanza is complete and most brilliant-
..defining the entire work-

this is vast and away from what I've read before
from you..
even metaphorically,
(perhaps more so)
it's an amazing piece all the same-

Sincerely,

Billy

Not so sure I fully grasp this one, but it seems to be in reference to some sort of change (for the better..?) on the horizon.
It also reads as not an earth-shattering change, but still one nonetheless. That's what I took from it anyway.
