You smell like the essence of joy.
You have the color of sunset squeezed,
rejoicing the violence by dri-dripping
the most tantalizingly consistent
pulpy sediment, shamelessly healthy.
No wonder you sustained me
when I swallowed the bitter medicine.
You're elixir of life in my palm,
yet they only call you an orange.
A love poem to an orange.
