The worst kind of apple
It's been a while since I participated in a community challenge. Thanks Donna! Thanks Paul!
Where to begin?
Where to make haste?
Well first off
I gotta tell ya'
I really do hate the taste.
"The flavors bad!"
I'll admit that.
I'll shout.
If you shove it in my mouth
I'll surely spit it out!
"But it's the best!"
"Great when fresh!"
The statement they make.
Not for me,
Sir, no please. I will simply not partake.
So acidic
It eats You
As You eat it
Burn calories?
I'll eat grapefruit to stay fit.
"They're so sweet!"
"And juicy too!"
Is what they all have to say.
Their best purpose, for what I think
Is so Spongebob has a mortgage to pay.
A wives tail myth
Some urban lore
People tell me before a date
To drink a gallon
In case we mate
"Oh, for real?"
As I facepalm.
I don't buy it.
I stay calm.
Cause most people eat a poor diet.
They all swear that it's the truth
Thanks to this magical, yellow, fruit
It's always their top suggestion
So I ask them
A few more questions
"Why this drink?"
They still hector.
"Won't other juices change the flavor?
Why are you so concerned about my nectar,
unless it's me you wish to savor?"
Now, I'm fine with tons of fruit.
Let it be known
If You never want to hear me whine
Just please, for the love of food
Give me an apple that's not of pine.
People put it in everything
They think it's a delight
No, I don't think its nice
That they treat it like a seasoning
They treat it like a spice.
I'd rather have lemons
Or even some fresh squeezed lime
Putting pineapple in every dish
Is a culinary crime
To have it off the menu, would be my simple wish.
Cooking is an art
And there's a science to the meals
Yet some cooks are gambling with dice
When they always mix in pineapple
Into a dish that has rice!
Yes, I know I'm going to complain.
When on a trip back from Hawaii
We were served dinner on a plane
The chicken dish was delighting
But when I tasted chunks of pineapple, I nearly went insane!
I hate this fruit.
I hate its pricks!
I hate its taste!
It makes me sick!
Adding it to a meal just makes it a waste!
There is no mistake
This fruit I simply hate
If You want to fight me, I don't care if we grapple
Because this fruit simply is
The worst kind of apple
