Can I say
that except for just one slice
this orange has failed, section by section,
not achieving anything more than a vague, distant
suggestion of flavor, or can I separate out that toothsome
mouthful for some independent praise—or does the fact
that its consumption happened last propose to us
a sequence more than random, and, if so,
should I consider that redemptive
or even triumphant?
