a new rules of lemons

micro-plane little curls of 
yellow peel, sweet with bitterness

down to the white, then slice
in half, ready to squeeze

in a vice designed specifically
for yellow fruit, the size of a lemon

the juices bursting out everywhere
in tiny droplets, pulp pushing out 

of the little holes in the vice until
the scent of lemon rules the room.

I love Lemon! Even my Green Tea needs to have Lemon flavour. Your writing remind me to have a cup now. Well Written!
