Juices

Dribbling down

My chin,
It chews, quivering,
At the honey suckle taste,


Of the sun.

Slight sweetness,
Tinged, with resentment.

Tingling taste
Prolonged rebellion
On the palette


Of my tongue.

… To eat

Or not to eat…

Poisonous toxins
Delicious
Intriguing

Dangerous,

Laying in the shade,

Skulls, the color of green

Dropping in my lap.

This poem is more about love and confusion in my life, then anything else.
