There Is No Substitute For What Is Present... Poem by RIC BASTASA

There Is No Substitute For What Is Present...



to view an apple in the internet
or climb an apple tree with many ripe apples
in cyberspace

they are nothing
compared to the ripe mango in my hands

to a virtual love that is described as true
love making vicarious
that is nothing compared to a kiss
that i planted on your
cheek of
peach
