The game of bees or no-bees seems to be about the human condition. Even if we give our best, even if we try with every last drop of our blood and until all we drop dead, all we can ever hope to achieve is a box full of nothing. And if we lose, which we probably will, we get stung by killer bees, which will only worsen our unbearable pain and prolong this curse called life.
