the winter orange

the winter
orange
has promise. the round
cold
fruit in your hand.
somehow
it's traveled far to
reach you.
you can almost taste
its juice,
as it runs down against
your chin.
is she sweet
inside as she is on the out?
anymore, you're wise
to be unsure 
about what lies
below the skin.
