Are you a Beekeeper?

BEEKEEPERS

The noise in my head is intense.
Priorities, to do lists, competing
demands, people waiting
for this and expecting that.
It’s like a glass box full of bees,
all flying around looking for space.
 
So, I open the box and
immediately the bees fly away.
They all go and find
their own space and
I am left with mine.
No noise, just peace.
 
I close the lid and
the bees cannot return.
Nor can I put any other things
into this glass box.
It remains empty and clear
I am no longer a beekeeper.
