Poem, Plums (Yes, Those Plums), Food


Living Alone On Purpose
January 8, 2025

I do not beg to differ, no
I do so at my leisure
no travesty apology
nor guilt in market after

this is not to say in any way
your plums were not delicious

but I oppose your soft array
of fruits so cold and sweet
which in my dining tray
were presented as a treat

if you want your plums
kept comfy and uneaten

place them not
in my cold fridge
no edge or calculation
will protect them
