The crown was never ours to hand down.
At the edge of every unsprayed field there is a line, and something stands on it. Not a rescuer — the hive has never asked to be saved. A sentinel. The crowned guard who holds the forage against the concrete, keeps the hedgerow standing one more season, and does the harder, quieter work that looks like nothing until the year it's gone. This is the guardian rendered as heraldry: the crown, the wings, the vines that keep coming back. Worn on the back, facing out, the way a sentinel faces the field. Protect. Defend. Endure.
"Protect the hive" — not by keeping the bees, but by keeping the world that keeps them.
