blather
i_didn't_eat
sans nom the whole apple

there was a
spot where a
worm bit in
to the core

the seeds so tempting
to eat the apple seeds

i remember watching you
with amazement those years ago
on my street as we walked
i was eating an apple from
your kitchen you had already
finished yours you took the rest of mine
from my hand from your hand
i'd taken but a few bites
the only thing i'd eaten that day

i didn't mind at all i was in awe
watching you the way you
ate the whole apple
