Fresh Squeezed

R.A.D. Stainforth's beautifully fresh reading:

Choose a ripe one;

wrap fingers around each part.

Push down, slow at first,

then grind hard, on the sombrero.

Pump, until juice shoots,

seeds cinch in the grooves.

Salt the lip; add tequila.

Drink deep, and repeat,

until all thirst is quenched.
