Henry and Henrietta brought a dozen eggs
from the tree bearing strange fruits
Now why does this tree have eggs not
blossoms
Henrietta bounced like a floppy
flower in heat
Down the road by the flat green wet shape
They cracked one by one each egg into a
Sun spot hotter than July
We are so famished
The milky egg spun much potential
Henrietta bounced and bounced
The year two women gave birth to a small
man
