Good! Simple, has a good rythm. I like how you tied in the repeated 'from' in the second to last line, broke it up just enough to bring it to a close without seemig abrupt. Good job!

I sit in the room, simple, quiet
watching the sun shine on the bowl
the red skin, the symmetry, the magnificence.
I pluck the crimson orb from the top of the pile
examining it, seeing no bruises or blemishes.
I take a bite, letting the crisp flesh slide apart beneath my teeth,
savoring it, not feeling the slightest bit of mealiness with my tongue.
I take another bite, then another, feeling each tiny bit go down
my throat between bites.
Bit by bit, the skin disappears, then the flesh until the seeds can be seen.
I place what was once a luscious apple on the table, then eat another.
