Bees! I bow to you!

Bees are marvelous creatures. They can see UV and use polarization of atmosphere to determine temporal and directional information. The wiki page on Karl von Frisch study on them here is incredible.

Umwelt is the idea that because their senses pick up on different things different animals in the same ecosystem actually inhabit very different worlds.

In flagrante delicto

(from wikipedia:)

In flagrante delicto (Latin: "in blazing offence") or sometimes simply in flagrante (Latin: "in blazing") is a legal term used to indicate that a criminal has been caught in the act of committing an offence (compare corpus delicti). The colloquial "caught in the act", "caught red-handed", or "caught rapid" are English equivalents.

- Rumi -

The wound is the place where the Light enters you.

One embrace

This pain that I relish
his memories that I cherish
letters will just make it worse
pining becoming nigh a curse
all this heart wishes
is him in his true essence
and an embrace that crushes
the want of his presence. 

Poem

He called me a poet, unaware that I am writing my greatest poem with him.

Etched

I have something that will stay with me
Is it enough to let a poem be
the transience of happiness is indeed vain
now I have the memories permanent, etched in pain

Smitten

Don't get me back to my cold self yet

there are verses to be written

Sometimes a stone also wants to feel

how it is like to be smitten.

Utopia

Deceptive eyes
inadvertent lies
fickle emotions
ephemeral devotion
spring gets over
flowers don't blossom
then any longer
and you reckoned
love will persist
forever?
What utopia! 

Hard

My heart imitates a snake coiling
Thinking of him, my head is toiling
One touch of his I yearn
Love is hard, thus I learn

'One of the hardest aspects is dealing with the scene, all the talking about climbing and who’s doing what, you know. I hate that stuff. And that’s why I would never climb professionally again, because I don’t enjoy talking about all the climbs I’ve done. That’s why I respect people at the limit of the sport who don’t feel the need to report everything they do.'

'I also aim to imagine how to sustain the life-affirming properties of human contact and community in the face of such powerful and addictive technologies. They will not improve the quality of human life if they only bury people even further into their electronic shells. Practically every week some magazine runs a story about how email, cell phones, texting, Facebook, Twitter, etc., etc., have diminished the quality of face-to-face communication. In 2009 the New York Times profiled a family of six in which every member, including the five-year old, starts the day by grabbing a nearby electronic gadget instead of talking to each other. There is nothing new about the fear that technology is harming human interaction. People philosophized and worried about telegraphs and telephones in very much the same way that people now philosophize and worry about the Internet. In an 1880 novel titled Wired Love: A Romance of Dots and Dashes two telegraph operators carried on a very politely Victorian version of cybersex and pondered whether they had a “real” relationship. Going back even further, Plato fretted about the impact of writing on human interaction 2,400 years ago in the Phaedrus. (To see that writing is a technology, consider what it would take for you to create a pen, ink, and paper on your own.) Plato argued that unlike its author, a written text could not engage in conversation; if questioned it would simply give the same answer again. Knowledge only truly exists in human interaction, he said. He concluded that by seducing people into believing that they can obtain knowledge from solitary reading, the written word threatens human ties.'
