If You Were Offended by the Plums

May 25, 2017 by Claire Schmidt

I will give you all my plums in the icebox
since I much prefer peaches.

Not the mediocre kind—
the good ones,
which are hard to find. 

But if I do, I will
cut you off one small slice. 
But two or three,
I cannot spare.

As I crave the
sensation of juice
dripping
down
my
chin.
