Mango
By Bill Frayer
Peeling a mango is simple.
Doing that one thing, now
Is simple, and it is good.
Doing that one thing, now
Is simple, and it is good.
So as I peel a mango
I anticipate
Its sweet tartness
And feel my saliva
Prepare itself
For the first bite.
And I am fully
With this mango
In this moment.

And feel my saliva
Prepare itself

And I am fully
With this mango
In this moment.
I am not thinking
About my health
Or about problems
With my family
Or about my next poem.
Only the mango
This mango
In this mango moment
Uneaten.

With my family
Or about my next poem.
Only the mango
