We are kindred spirits with the wasps, as they, splayed around our living quarters, welcoming as lotus flowers, are gathered into soft linens and onto pillows and let go alive onto outdoor bannisters.
A drawn breath rushes out, hinting at a sigh. I wonder if wasps mourn their dead, as the line of husks on my windowsill suggests they don't. They carry them single file out of the hive and release them to the air below. The whole hive feels the loss. I know they do.
