Ripe Valentine (for Eliot and Williams)

I did dare
to eat that
pear you both
recommended
sweet with bad
parts I cut
out it made
a gurgling sound
as it went
down waiting for
my call to
get through to
you don’t leave
a message your
recorded voices sang
unless you haven’t
eaten all those
really ripe pears
