Musings by The Poet Loriet

Apple Pie

I feel vibrantly alive,
almost mad with creativity
as an electric zing
cores my center as if
I were a poison apple.

Don't spit me out.
Not just yet.
I'm acidic but sweet
and feel electrified
with passion.

I could make love
like a wildcat
if you don't mind
the morning-after
claw marks.

Go ahead.
Take a bite.
Peel me open
and suck my nectar.

I polished my
wineskin for you.
Do I tempt you?
You are as predictable
as Pavlov's dog.

It's human nature.
