Jasmine Tea

花茶

she nibbles seasonless strawberries
bloated white-cored phantoms
of red fruit small and fragrant
shared in their halcyon spring

dry cork shatters on the screw
opening the last of the Riesling
sweet afternoons in the Schwarzwald
waft away on vinegar's sour breath

jasmine tea she never brewed
because he disliked its sweet smell
warms chilled hands she wraps
around her blue porcelain cup

she gathers up funeral bouquets
carries them to the back door
on its hook  a battered jacket
exudes musky-leather memories
			

她轻咬着不分季节的草莓
膨胀白心的妖魔
小而香的红色水果
分享着它们宁静的春天

干燥的瓶塞被螺旋拧碎
打开最后一瓶白葡萄酒
黑森林甜蜜的午后
在醋酸味里飘散

她从不泡的花茶
因为他不喜欢它的甜味
把她围拢在蓝色瓷杯上的
冷手焐暖

她捡起葬礼的花束
把它们拿到后门
在架子上   一件破旧的夹克
渗出麝香皮革的回忆
