She says
As if it's a person
A rich fragrance
Or delicacy
You know we're in Trader Joe's
I say
It's a co-op
With half decent produce
It's not the goddamn garden of Eden
What would you know about the garden of Eden
She says
Wrinkling her mouth into a dried apricot
Her eyes swimming to the left
In frigid waters
Eh
I say
And grab a bag of pretzels
Knowing full well
That her gluten allergy will flair
