It is as though

It is as though

I swallowed my cell phone.

Last I checked

I had it on manner mode.

So when it rings

it vibrates —

that must be you calling!

It is as though

I swallowed a beehive,

with thousands of

buzzing bees

flying around inside,

bumping into walls,

tickling me with their wings —

then I realize

that is you,

roaming around!

Or

maybe it is as though

a hummingbird

flew into my stomach,

hovering in circumference,

poking me with its beak —

but that can’t be!

It’s you I feel in there,

curious arms and fluttering feet.
