when the sorting was done
i saw a black heap.
overripe the cherries lay with
dark sweat glazed over their heads
they can only be used for example
and fake outs now
who ordered this?
you, Sun, giver of life
and you, Time, the ever ever-
keeper of the peace.
so thanks for all that
but not for the cherries.
