TEXT

RAW – (Material) #3: Apples

Osmanthorpe Orchard Nature Reserve – Nottinghamshire

pick pick pick pick

the verb is the same as the sound

pick

So many

bountiful

little tiny apples from ancient

un-tended trees

orchard yielding

hanging fruit

hanging heavy – loaded

weighting waiting for

“pick” “pick”

reaching & pulling – grabbing

dropping

basket waiting to catch the fall

Softly violent action to pick

- tug the fruit away from its

attachment (to life)

Satisfying to the hand

Roundness, smoothness, firmness

in the hand

- fits there, just right

like it was made to be

held in a hand

twist & pull, tug & “pick” “drop”
