Yellowjackets
yellow black buzz
outside your window
with stinger knives
we live underground
queens with hives
looking through
your glass window
late at night
cause we want a bite
straight through you
can’t run from us
the swarming curse
pray for a nurse
she drives the
yellow black hearse
Epinephrine
won’t save you
suicide sacrifice
sacred side effect
ritual of flight
we're your doom
coming for you
carnivorous teeth
devour hands and feet
meat that’s sweet
we'll love you
til we’re through
airkisses that attack
candied bite of
the Yellowjackets
outside your window
with stinger knives
we live underground
queens with hives
looking through
your glass window
late at night
cause we want a bite
straight through you
can’t run from us
the swarming curse
pray for a nurse
she drives the
yellow black hearse
Epinephrine
won’t save you
suicide sacrifice
sacred side effect
ritual of flight
we're your doom
coming for you
carnivorous teeth
devour hands and feet
meat that’s sweet

Author's Note
So I just finished watching the first season of Yellowjackets on Showtime. Wow!!!
Totally hooked to all that dark f****** up stuff. Very Lord of the Flies but in a female perspective.
Juliette Lewis and Christina Ricci are amazing in this!!! Totally killed it.
And yes I broke my own rules about posting but....fuck it!! LOL
now back to my project. hehehehe

Hi A
I love your poem, it's truly lovely lovely lovely.
But I need to say I hate my blasted phone. I had this whole long rhyming comment already to post here for you, but, once again, I hit the damm blasted back button on the phone and lost it.
Love n peace

A great flow to this, to go along with the finely detailed descriptions. Good job! And makes me want to check out the show you're referencing.

Dude!! Two thumbs up!!
Christina Ricci and Juliette Lewis totally rock this show.
Can't wait for the next season. It is a bit graphic so if you are
squeamish just a fair warning.
Loved everything about it.
The scenes and the dialog of the show are superb amigo.

Dear A,
Super write. If I could sing I would sing it. The meter is terrific. Great rhyming and phrasing. I’m completely done in by the fact you created this after watching a tv show. This kind of inspiration is fabulous to me. I would have just said, “yeah, great show. Really liked it”. You write a piece of art.
Wonderful piece. H🌷

Hey H:)
What a lovely comment. Thank you. I've been so preoccupied with other stuff glad to get a small break and write something different.
The show was that great. LOL
Had to jot something down before it all disappeared.
Thank you for stopping by with your fabulous self:)

[Epinephrine

This stanza just hums, Adelphina.
... Lewis and Ricci are awesome...
Must now watch.
:)))
Very nicely done.

Re: Re. Yellowjackets
Well hey there mister.
I was going to use the word EpiPen in that stanza but changed my mind last minute. It reminded me of writing with a pen. I wanted to keep it more in tune with the yellowjacket instead of writing a poem.
Hope that makes sense. LOL
Glad it made a hum for ya, heheheh
Some of the other stanzas will make more
sense if you watch the show
Thanks for stopping by and the RL
Woop woop!!

Ha!!
You can count on me to be your knight in shining horror - I mean honor. LOL
I loved the show but that's just me.
Might not be some peoples cup of tea but I like to watch
stuff that pushes boundaries on mankind or womankind. LOL

Re. Yellowjackets
Hey there, A
This has been, hands down, my new favorite show to watch!! I think Melanie Lynskey (Shauna) is an absolutely phenomenal actress, too. I've loved her character work for years and she's just utterly amazing in each episode. The more I learn about her the more it blows my mind 🤯 ... lol.... Soo awesome! I really love Juliette Lewis and Christina Ricci as well, like you said, they rock the hell out of their roles.... Omg - Misty is truly
insane!!!...lol...haha... The writing for the series is so well calibrated, making the constant jump of timelines feel smooth and effortless.... kind of like it's it's own 'character', too.
I can hardly wait to see what happens in the next season... I hope it's viewership did okay enough for the show to continue to be made and it's not on any chopping block of cancelation!!.... I hate it when I fall in love with the first season of a really killer (pun intended!) show only to find out that it never comes back for a second.... Uggh! 🤦🏻♀️
Your poem really highlights aspects of the series so cleverly, I was totally taken there....
Fantastic ink!!

Ha! We are series soul sisters. LOL
Melanie (Shauna) has this quiet ticking time bomb about her. You think - nah - she wouldn't. But oh fuck yeah she would. hahaha
I hope they don't cancel. As you can tell - I'm kinda invested in this show now. It actually pulled me back to this site to write something.
I was trying so hard to stay strong and not detour but I caved. LOL
Thanks for the RL amiga!!
