Susan: Not All Plums Are What They Seem To Be. Poem by Sidi Mahtrow

Susan: Not All Plums Are What They Seem To Be.



On reading the poem by Suzan Jarvis and her reflection on William C. Williams' poem

Them plumbs about
which you write
were ‘haps something
other than what's thought.

Cause in the West
they might just be
something collected
from other than a tree.

An if they were
a bit red and undone
it's possible they'd
be better left alone.

For the critter that gave
them up
certainly never intended
them for your sup.

(Of course Williams being from New Jersey, may not have know the difference.)
