Pomegranate Winter
by Jennifer Ensley (©kbwagers2005)
Sticky sweet, not so much
staining fingers
earth garnets
bitter seeds taste like unjust laws
4 seeds? 10?
How long do you wish to spend the winter?
cold hands run warm skin through
and my back is bent like an old woman's
Pomegranates
jewels in leather coats
squeeze gently else you are stained for life
and all my licking would not get
you clean again
this cold is bitter
without you by my side
and it will be long winter years
until I see you again.
