killing time one species at a time

by kneedleknees

another nail driven into the bad news coffin another nail driven by our hands - inconsequential as it may be the rusty patched bumble bee has been marked for endangerment.  and though Rusty Patched stretches his wings over vermont way and though I've never seen a vermont sunrise I know that it does.  and I know it's the same as carolina's.  and I've never met a person from vermont in person, but I know that they like flowers, blueberries, tomatoes and that Rusty is a good friend of theirs because of that.  planting his pollinating pixie stick into receptive pistil and flowers flowering, blueberries blueing on bush, tomatoes tip toeing to life on the vine thank Rusty.  and vermont, Bernie Sanders and all, thank Rusty with a new spot on the great pesticide death list.  whose bright idea was it to grow our food with napalm? I think I missed that city council meeting.
