Caught in a storm of enemy troops,
buzzing and stinging,
hurling themselves tirelessly;
active thoughts swarm inside,
~
savage attacks consume soft flesh;
black on black furiously clambering,
as onslaughts of angry bees take possession,
~
building a colony,
~
a black veil molds itself
to her wax-like carcass,
as she becomes Queen.

Very original take of the prompt, you become better in your usage in words. You have already a clear look at the line-breaks, well done. Fine usage of imagery
A suggestion: try your poems to connect to a bigger whole.
Good luck in the contest
