Be it perched on top a sundae, or bobbing in our alcohol, the maraschino cherry without nary a doubt, procures enjoyment through mere consumption. But perhaps, even more delicious lies the fantasy of desiring itself.

Drenched in insufferable sweetness, the cornucopia of cherry-filled jars adorned with golden bottle caps, is a delectable tease. Lovingly curated on a towering golden shelf, they lounge far from palatable reach. Very much the sexy starlet, begging for her portrait to be taken, the alluring maraschino arouses enjoyment through the desire, for desiring. It’s a pity, to let such ardour go to waste. So please, slowly contemplate and savour the dizzying pleasure.
