Uta eats an avocado
Uta holds the avocado in her palm
like a Faberge egg
lode green full of mystery
she turns it round and around
then cleanly slices the top
and scoops out
the treasure with a teaspoon
consumes the flesh slowly
running her tongue
into the hollow of metal
to capture every morsel
of this precious moment.
