So this month the Poetry Jam of [personal profile] lunabee34 is looking at Sandra Cisneros's My wicked, wicked ways. Here's the two that I liked most from the collection.

Peaches--Six in a Tin Bowl, Sarajevo by Sandra Cisneros

If peaches had arms
surely they would hold one another
in their peach sleep.

And if peaches had feet
it is sure they would
nudge one another
with their soft peachy feet.

And if peaches could
they would sleep
with their dimpled head
on the other's
each to each.

Like you and me.

And sleep and sleep.

I the Woman )
