Heartsick
Hallucinogenic fruit, from a deadly tree,
Vine-ripened opiates, the preferred toxin of the connoisseur
The lotus-eater with discerning tastes.
Shining skin,
Flesh like organs,
Pips as red as blood, and hard as bone.
Love-inducing, dream-bringing, soul-stealing,
Heartsick, the desire-bringing fruit
That creates dangerous, poisonous infatuation.
