writing
rich red poems
bursting
with abundant juice
like succulent
crown cultivated
strawberries
containing melons
of tasty meaning
juices run
lusciously swobbing
painting
lipstick tarted lips
greedily gobbling
magnifying
improbable morsels
sucking shredding
squashed pulp
morphia
plants grown
were fed
mind slender
frail potted
plantings
mordant
in foliage stem beds
architect groomed
tesselated soil
were fruit given
strawberries grown
