A Palatable Solution to the Problem

tracing the groove of a plum
 with my tongue
all the while indulging in
the sultry mist by which it was waxed

the taught, pseudo-vinyl coat
 slowly peels
(revealing a putamen too small
 - to dare preach any further)
as the fruit lapses into reverie
onto athirst lips
which part too eager to consume

stridor succumbs to murmurs as
polished orb glazes over with estrus fervor
for not all drupes which drip
sapid juices of tepid gest
 come
from the refrigerator
