Out of lemon flowers

    loosed

    on t, loves

    lasiable

    essences,

    sodden h fragrance,

    trees yellow

    emerges,

    the lemons

    move down

    from trees planetarium

    Delicate merchandise!

    t-

    bazaars

    for t and the

    barbarous gold.

    e open

    the halves

    of a miracle,

    and a clotting of acids

    brims

    into tarry

    divisions:

    creations

    original juices,

    irreducible, changeless,

    alive:

    so the freshness lives on

    in a lemon,

    in t-smelling he rind,

    tions, arcane and acerb.

    Cutting the lemon

    the knife

    leaves a little cathedral:

    alcoves unguessed by the eye

    t open acidulous glass

    to t; topazes

    riding ts,

    altars,

    aromatic facades.

    So, whe hand

    of the lemon,

    half a world

    on a trencher,

    the universe

    wells

    to your touch:

    a cup yellow

    h miracles,

    a breast and a nipple

    perfuming th;

    a flasage,

    tive fire of a planet.
