queen’s reign abated
her anguished swarm’s fury hunts
in the bonfire’s flame

Yes. When the Queen Bee dies, the bees begin urgently building chambers for new queen candidates. When the first emerges she quickly attempts to kill the others while they are still in their chambers. Of course, I accidentally realized the Queen Bee connection to my haiku idea and changed it to be a nature one and one to fit the current happenings, depending on your thinking at the time of reading.

We have what are called miner bees in our garden they are very different to the normal bees. They are like hippie need and live in commune like under ground caverns. https://www.honeybeesuite.com/let-mining-bees-be/
