tasting the earth,
Calling out to Gaea,
thanking her.

Plump tomatoes-
Seeds and juice, ripe,
flowing down my wrist as I lick it off,
chewing, eyes close, lips betraying my years,
Soft with the fruit of the mile-second,
no, not chapstick either,
but tongue, and teeth, immersed in growth,
tasting the earth,
Calling out to Gaea,
thanking her.
