A Perfect Date

Black, supple, and intoxicating. Waiting just out of reach. You have to climb for this treat. In the sweltering sun, whole body glistening. Firm. In your mouth: sweet and sticky. I know wrinkled isn’t a turn on, but trust me you want the wrinkles. You want to run your tongue along the wrinkled flesh. To taste the Sahara, to taste the swaying palms, and salty deserts where it ripened.
