had a plum today.
not some cheap, bull shit one from
the grocery store,
but a real, good plum.
with red bejeweled flesh
and tart, tender skin.
i sucked it til
the fruit was no more, clenching
the pit in my teeth.

I really really like this one. I think William Carlos Williams would too.
indeed, madam! indeed!
my mom always makes a point of telling me when there are cold plums available in the fridge.
my mom always ate them all! :-)
