Mama won't tell you this

but you can see bitterness, too

find a broken man, woman or child

wearing a wrinkle

lemon-lipped

better not lick them bitter things

mama will tell you that

but you'll do it anyway

Wish I never heard her

sour tongue

stories recollected I never knew

filed away in my library

best keep those thoughts

in gyri

cut a lemon in half

took a taste for the hell of it
