The Apple
The instructor set up the still
life for her students to paint;
a single apple she pulled
from her handbag.
A difficult subject, with its
smooth exterior and limited
contrast; it would keep the
students occupied while
she scanned the want ads
for additional work.
She was hungry eating only
a single apple for lunch every
day.
The students struggled over the
apple, shifting their easels in
attempts to find a view that
would heighten the contrast
or make the shape more distinctive.
The instructor saw them struggling
and she was hungry.
At noon, she let the students
take a lunch break,
and ate the apple.
