< those evenings >

ray heinrich

you pretended it was spring
even when it was
those evenings when the sun went down
just
as the moon came up

you practiced this
holding an orange in one hand
and a pear in the other
lifting the pear
and letting the orange fall
past the wash of beach
between your thigh and breast
