Clementine
March 7, 2022
A bright clementine sits before me, the color of the radiant sun
It holds a porous texture- anything but uniform and firm
The sound as I peel- a mix of a squelch and what sounds like crunching leafs under my foot
The peel holds an unpleasant scent, bitter and earthy- it almost stings
While the fruit is fragrant and fresh
The taste is strong and overwhelming, it comes and goes- as if it was never there
