he said,
take as many as you'd like.
so we did.
the tree
was full of pears.
sweet and green.
we ate,
we cracked them
open with our teeth,
digging into
the white meat.
we stuck them in our
pockets,
filled
a bag of them.
we ate until our
stomachs
ached.
i haven't touched
a pear since
i don't remember
when.
