FRUIT

British Library

body of

fingers spread a clothed knee       fingers curl 

around  own two       looking to be  fed  within  

  the same block     i feel a new Shape in that hand 

an After attention elbow    inner arm maybe Rib

your crinkle a gift tissue pleated eye      the front tooth 

comb         see a new Shape there  too

 

 

        neat  cherry stem into

bow   with my tongue   but soon cannot stop myself from 

pitting against 

       split    pine nut  granite 

i have removed  the  slow Shape  in her with my eyes closed

squared and   scorched opposite  still samed enough  the

           cloy of   Newer fruit
