hesitant hands 

reaching for the soft flesh of a fig

its sweetness coating her fingertips as 

pomegranate seeds emerge from the earth

          a ruby realm 

a fortress of warmth enveloping her

the pulsing light contained beneath her skin–

satisfying a hunger 

               her body housed in a beating heart
