Ice Cream - May 23, 2000
As I watch the cherry stems float
on the white vanilla river,
the chocolate silt is carried along.
And slowly,
the strawberry barges nudge
closer to the glass bowl edge
where they are picked up
in a steel lift
and dropped into a dark emptiness.
Only to hear the hums of pleasure.
