Love in a Supermarket

Veined, pink
Foetal prawns,
Rich green
Minted peas,
Brush of skin on
A hot day
By the cool
Earth smelling
Strawberries.
Eyes touching.
Cynical jokes at
Pre-packed meals.
Tongues stroking,
By the crusty bread.
Meet and marry
At the checkout
Then the consequences
Will be faced.
