Untouched apples
Flaunt, mount, taunt, and haunt
Until eyes force streams in mouths
And mouths gulp for bodies to drown
In the wants of un-haves
II
When the apples fall
In hot pots of thoughts it caught
Teeth bite with vigour and stride
Diminishing of wants
Come with every bite
III
Then the wars starts
Slight, fright, tight in heights
As bitings become responsibilities
Instead of pleasure
And seeds occupy times of leisure

It makes me think of the expression “the apple of my eye”. Well done, and a very interesting painting, too, Cecilia. 🙂
