don’t get scurvy
from too much poetry
like I have before
with fevered headaches
damp eyes and a sour
look on my face
mash an orange with your teeth
taste the sunshine trickle
down your throat
you’ll feel instantly better
from a light you can’t see
a feeling you can’t fathom
an orange can be
like a poem
you don’t get
but really enjoyed
going down
