Quotes & Sayings About Papaya

Driving down deserted early morning roads. Round and round. Round downtown. Through naked streets. Lips pursed on two litre bottles of beer, but pursuing the lips of freedom's night. Swapping cars.

i gut fruit with my mouth
push tongue into black belly of papaya
peel lychee with teeth

moaning into sweet flesh
the whole time
your name flat against the roof of my mouth. — Warsan Shire

The Kitchen





Half a papaya and a palmful of sesame oil;
lately, your husband's mind has been elsewhere.

Honeyed dates, goat's milk;
you want to quiet the bloating of salt.

Coconut and ghee butter;
he kisses the back of your neck at the stove.

Cayenne and roasted pine nuts;
you offer him the hollow of your throat.

Saffron and rosemary;
you don't ask him her name.

Vine leaves and olives;
you let him lift you by the waist.

Cinnamon and tamarind;
lay you down on the kitchen counter.

Almonds soaked in rose water;
your husband is hungry.

Sweet mangoes and sugared lemon;

but she cannot make him eat, like you. — Warsan Shire

And he would wait for her, until he drew his last breath, until the world stopped turning... — Pan
