Fat, Juicy, and Sweet

blood red forest green China blue sky pomegranate blooms cling tight to trees tussled by the breeze pretty petals flutter away budding bumps emerge summer swells crimson, fat, juicy, and sweet sagging branches bird pecked dripping down javelina break a flimsy fence to eat the fallen and I don't know by then where I'll be waiting on you waiting on me wanting to stay wanting to leave it's usually enough just to feel the sun now I need to feel someone where does it go does the summer swell into red, fat, juicy and sweet waiting on you waiting on me clinging to someone on this rolling sea like the blossoms tossed by the breeze do I tighten my hold or do I let go of my juicy and sweet to flee this prison alone but free
