Orange by Jane Kennedy Stuppin


One truth is the fruit.
The tide less ocean of orange,
the ripples of its landless shores.

Would you like a piece of my orange?
You know its limits. There is no vanishing point:
Only the pulp, the juice, the white seeds.

Einstein must have had a sense of taste for the orange.
It’s all relative to whose mouth eats which orange.
