Ice, as with objects in general, has a sense of humor. Especially when paired with a pomegranate. Even when the pomegranate is dried and is between ice & alstroemeria it holds it's own. Imagine when it spills its seeds in a spinach salad.
Don't you think the alstroemeria (freshly picked) wishes to come forward. That's the wisdom of editing. Or perhaps, the call & response of objects.
Isn't it interesting, that if we check back in a year the following 3 outcomes are likely:
1) ice won't melt;
2) alstromeria won't wilt
3) the pomegranate will not reinvent seeds
And certainly much will be edited -- meals & poems, in particular. Susan & I will continue our delicious word-folly.
