Night Stanzas

The Sex Writer Makes a Fruit Salad

by Shanna Germain
(07/06/05)

Oh grapes! You round,
you firm globes
of sticky goodness!
Enter this bowl,
lay down with
peach flesh, cuddle
with this curved
bottom of pear.
Scatter yourselves among
raspberry nipples
and the soft fur of mint.
Touch each skin, every
seed and flesh of fruit.
Oh grapes! Wait there,
mingled with sticky
nectar and honey, wait
there to be met by lip
and tongue, to be bitten
to rapture, to break wide
open and spread your sweet
joyous juice.
