POEM WITH A CUCUMBER IN IT by Robert Haas
Sometimes from this hillside just after sunsetThe rim of the sky takes on a tinge
Of the palest green, like the flesh of a cucumber
When you peel it carefully.
*
In Crete once, in the summer,When it was still hot at midnight,
We sat in a taverna by the water
Watching the squid boats rocking in the moonlight,
Drinking retsina and eating salads
Of cool, chopped cucumber and yogurt and a little dill.
*
A hint of salt, something like starch, somethingLike an attar of grasses or green leaves
On the tongue is the tongue
And the cucumber
Evolving toward each other.
*
Since cumbersome is a word,Cumber must have been a word,
Lost to us now, and even then,
For a person feeling encumbered,
It must have felt orderly and right-minded
To stand at a sink and slice a cucumber.
*
If you think I am going to makeA sexual joke in this poem,
you are mistaken.
*
In the old torment of the earthWhen the fires were cooling and disposing themselves
Into granite and limestone and serpentine and shale,
It is possible to imagine that, under yellowish chemical clouds,
The molten froth, having burned long enough,
Was already dreaming of release,
And that the dream, dimly
But with increasing distinctness, took the form
Of water, and that it was then, still more dimly, that it imagined
The dark green skin and opal green flesh of cucumbers.
