Jealousy

sweet treachery
crawling on its knees
staring at me
begging, begging
with
alluring eyes

such a green little serpent
speaks to me
as if I were Eve
glittering in the sun
with curiosity

Everyone
Loves
A
Little
Forbidden
Fruit . . .

And I don't give A Dam
A-DAM
Adam or Eve
Can be a little hungry
At the sight of few apples
Especially
IF
those apples
Happen
To
Be
GREEN.

So tell me . . .

Is that an apple in your pocket

OR

Are you just unhappy to see me?
