explaining to his Mexican friend
how he did his job when one
large pomegranate landed
at my feet splitting open
a tossed jewel box spewing
not quite ready rubies
and the Mexican was asking
lots of specific questions
when a second pomegranate
like a sliced-off breast fell
at my feet on the red bricks
and my neighbor was answering
every question and they were going
on and on while out of that jewel
box and out of that splayed breast
swarmed beetles spiders juice and seeds
exposing a black mold center
in the shape of a heart
I swear dude
