the juice of one lemon
by Christina Gleasoni love you in the kitchen
zesting a lemon, fingertips fragrant from oils,
the inexact marbling of pale pith and bright peel.
you move its muted figure across the table,
breaking membranes, releasing juice, offering me
its sour fruit. 06/17/2008 Author's Note: there is no twist in this: i love lemons.
