鳳梨

Fresh diced pineapple
Canned shipped juiced sent overseas
So simple and sweet
Bright labels hide the sharp cut
Edges of can and
Edges of plow the salty
Sweat that drips runs pours
Edges of borders
That keep you in working for
My simple and sweet
How many plants does it take
To fill your one day
And my one can is the taste
Enough to make this
Worth the sweat to bring one can
To one mouth am I
Worth the sweat to keep making
That fruit your whole life
I taste your sweat in this piece
Still seems so simple and sweet

果物

º
Firm flesh yields to my
Sinking teeth, tongue lapping up
The red running juice
I smack my lips for more
Ah, the sweet taste of summer.


With a knife I strip
Your spiny scales to reveal
The ripe flesh within
If it weren't for your core,
I would eat your body whole.


Exotic brown skin
So petite and firm, easy
To hold in my hand
Will you be angry at me
If I pucker at your flesh?


Exotic brown skin
So petite and firm, easy
To hold in my hand,
Your soft fur stands between us.
Here, let me help you
Shed your tropical sable;
Now naked, a bite?
Just one tiny nibble?  Oh!
You sting, I pucker.
