N: A sonnet about my persimmon tree.
P.S. It's been a while geez! O.O

~

Branches hung with hefty weight
Orange plums strain for picking
Black scars he does make, tearing
Open flesh, a squirrel's bait.

A friendship, or a double-date?
Greed in a feasting
Gay with a tasting;
A hasty treat, jaw stuffed to ache.

Seasonally due,
Limp and loose.
I pull and twist;
My beast is subdued.

My canines seep a nectarous juice.
From my lips, a persimmon-stained kiss.
