Nectar
I had a Kool-Aid stand with my friend Dynda when I was ten.
We called the sweet, green-dyed drink Hector’s Nectar.
It was magical, we said, because we made it with bumblebee sweat.
It was so good it caused butterflies to swoon and hummingbirds to weep.
Sales were disappointing.
The product just couldn’t live up to the hype.

I love the rhythm, and especially Hector’s Nectar. Love the sly humor.
