Purple; a plum's tale







































Purple; a plum's tale

A plum comes to me
in my dark place, where
there is no Eye.

Purple sweetness-
Satin sheets are the arms
of an orchard.

Spring disguises itself
as my lover again;
it happens every year.

I know full well
the ear lobe I bite is the
visceral beauty of god.

I like your plum-poem. The last verse reminds me of my husband and his earlobe which is covered with faint silky fur...
