Pepper

Never a passion,
But sometimes red.
Never a vegetable,
But sometimes mute.
Never rooted in soil,
But sometimes dirty.
Never burning a candle,
But sometimes burning bridges.

(Sighs)

Madre magma.
Once tasted,
Never forgotten.

Jumping beans,
(Mexican)
Frijol feet.

Jealous cousins
Grind your
Reputation,

Senorita H.
