#lave
hands run along the arch
as the skin
of the fruit ripens, the trial these fingers
leave, blazes with a need to follow.
to your light
digest me
and my shadows.
leave your glitter
for me to find.
a year later
take with you
my independence.
conjure the beast of evolution.
as i grip and sink
my teeth into your openings.
savory every drip is.
there’s been a thirst
to restore.
all that was once lost.
now, i wait
while the drought approaches.
from over the mountains
a tainted view, as the clouds part ways.
to reveal all that is ahead.
the future holds with it
a spear of truth.
tempted to pierce all that stands.
before my feet, the love for you
that comes with grief.
seeping through
the walls of my sanity.
until this room is no longer vacant
but before then.
i will cherish the juice that drips.
onto my lips
through this fruitful kiss.

It happened so quickly, one slip and fall.
Careening through the air i see can see my demise.
I met my watery grave as I heard Death's call.
Ruined and worthless, I say my goodbyes.
I get thrown away soggy and dead,
and I welcome my fate, forever soggy, wet bread.
