Just Desserts
by Alicia Vonne
I am famished
I digress
from bright lighting
into darkness
back and forth
infinity
burned
crispy
yet undercooked
baked
and milky white,
striving for nothing
and everything
these are fruits
mixed with sugar,
mashed into
an unknown
porridge
for the taking
ripen me to the quick
eat me with
strawberries
and blueberries
and whipped cream
I am sweet
but subtle
almost dry
but dressed
and waiting
for
someone
