THE NEW HIVE

                                                 THE NEW HIVE

     The workers spread the terrain around for about a week and a half.
Metal monsters with iron claws moved the earth. Pipes were set, pathways
made. Pieces of metal and wood were staved into the soul of the soil.
                                     ---And then the wasps came in
                                          to form the foundation of the new hive---
     Semitrucks with swirling bellies came to cum and pour their concrete
into the base of the nest. New workers would eventually arrive to complete
the next task, for the queen's endeavor, forever and ever.
     There was much more work to do in order to complete
the construction of the hive.................---------------------      .   ..... . .. .. .
