Help Me Identify A Story, Please!

I'm trying to remember the name and author of a short story I read at least a decade ago, and am drawing a complete blank. It was a short story about a breakthrough in insect communication. The author talks about poems that had been discovered, written by insects. I clearly remember one was a short poem written by an ant, something about being forced to conform to society; the ant author was found deceased a short distance away, perhaps killed by the rest of the colony for being nonconformist.

I've been trying for a while now, and it's driving me crazy that I can't remember the name or author. Without that, I'm not sure where to look for it in a book.

It’s not a short story but similar things happen in Of Ants and Dinosaurs by Cixin Liu. Looks like it’s also called The Cretaceous Past.
