(in hindsight)
Mother warned me about this.
I enjoyed reading this poem, I felt it had a natural flow to it. To me this poem is about death. I thought that this work uses nature to imply decay.

"I can feel you here,"

he crept into the dead drum of

my ear, and I crushed my fingers into

the left of his ribs and sought for anything

from that hound: no blood spoor

to glut the appetite.

It reads more like a short story than a poem, I'm not sure if this is your intention, I found the repetitive use of the word 'and' distracting.

Two more beers, child, and you'll be

flowers

bleeding the pollen of a harlot

and he'll be the

bees.

The final phrase is beautiful, if a little unexpected. I was not sure who the author is referring to when he is mentioned...I really like this work, though. 
my muse ran screaming....no really
