Asian origins.

Armenian plums.

Alexander the Great.

there is a lot to learn about apricots but I don’t really want to learn about apricots,

I just want to eat two that I bought yesterday and which seem less flashy

than the peach.

I bought three peaches, too,

haven’t dared to eat them, yet.

peaches are for poets,

apricots for the rest of us

who dare to live everyday,

we buy peaches in a can.

our stories are prose.
