writer's cramp: free verse poem about fruit
I do not like that healthy food
                   it's not healthy, it is healthful
damn grammar
screw the healthy and healthful
foods that I don't
want to eat
                   you would feel better if you...
oh, bite me

sweet vexation
it holds such great joys
marred only by the
very reasons I should ask
for its hand
                   marry it, someone here is
                   crazy

it's hard to talk
when these voices take
over
                   they have this in ice
                   cream, you know

everyone needs to be
quiet! and let
me talk to these good people
about the vexations
that are fruit

Silence bestowed
now the only thing I can
say is that...... I don't
know what to say
without the voices

I wish they would return
feeling so.....
abandoned
stupid fruit
