A Nectrine Eating Climax After Anupama Pilbrow Poem by Ravi Kopra

She eats a bough ripe nectarine
eaten by birds, insects and ants
in her neighbor's backyard.
She puts her mouth where thier
mouths, beaks were sucking
its juices to the fullest that
drip down onto her hands, arms, shoes, pants.
Ah! the bug infested skin, flesh,
juices of the nectarine. How
delicious! And its stone that she can
grind into paste with her stone like
teeth in her mouth! How marvellous to be
splendidly high like on some aphrodisiac!
And like birds, insects, ants, flies flying
to their mates in haste for inconceivably
conceivable climax!

HAPPINESS POEM

Here I am eating a tasty
nectarine from my neighbour's tree
and I am eating round the dimple
of where it is eaten by birds ants
other insects and so on who also
like tasty things. Everything is in love
with sugar and I am licking all the juices
dripping down onto my pants and arms
and shoes I am licking them up and
licking my lips and soon enough I am
also eating inside the dimple eaten by
birds ants and so on and we
are sharing communion of fruit I
am tasting their mouths with my mouth
and I am eating the stone slowly and
grinding it into a paste in my teeth it
is an aphrodisiac.
