mango (a found poem)

 

place (slender) mango
slice exposing
ends

pare away
(exquisite) remaining
bits of skin

slice (perfumed)
flesh make
two rounded shapes

without peeling
slice (precious)
close to the pit

on both sides
cutting (abundance)
cubes of mango

expose flesh
without biting
(sweetness) skin

bend (tongues) fruit
backward pushing
up under

make (shining) bow
mango still
attached to skin

mix papaya
pineapple (blossoms)
kiwi sugar lime

serve (divine) mango
