Plethora

Fay Slimm.

 

Plethora.

 

How by high summer

does one shake of a tree

drop ripest of fructus

addiction on me ?

 

Pregnant with juices

a ready plum belly

bulges with swollen 

     indulgent expectance.

Viscous saliva escapes  

open lips for plum-red 

plethora outstrips my 

other big obsessions.   

I squeeze firstly invite  

to succulent pleasure

for satin-smooth skin

holds ambrosial flesh. 

 

How, I repeat, does one 

shake of my plum tree 

drop sudden plum-fever 

addiction on me ?
