Ode to Granadillas
30.03.2012
Alien fruit
orange teardrop
puncture your crisp peel
reveal your slimy innards
like a halloween brain
like frog eggs or fish eggs (but too cheap to be caviar)
odd to touch see and taste
but always so refreshing and delightful
so juicy and sweet
yet your seeds add a hearty crunch
I won't stop slurping you
for breakfast dinner and almuerzo.
