Banana

May 1, 2023

I’m not very good at being a person

Maybe on the outside, but what bothers me ain’t on the surface

It’s the insides that’s rotten

Like…

A bruised banana

You can’t see the hurt by looking at the peel

But if you pulled the yellow away

You’d see bruises where it hurts

And you wouldn’t want it anymore

So you’d cut out the bad spots or just throw it away.

But those parts are some of me

And you can’t just ignore them, because in the end

You’ll still taste the sickly sweetness of those bruises

No matter how deep into that banana you cut.

-

Over 50% of our DNA is a perfect match to the DNA in a banana. 

I guess if I was a fruit, I’d be a banana. 

I hate bananas.

It’s so fitting!

Banana.

Ridiculous (Shape-Shifter)

May 3, 2023

It’s ridiculous how fast a bad day can become a good one

And then back again

Like some sort of awful monster–

A shapeshifter!

A broken one who can’t function right,

So it switches between its only two forms

At random.

Keeping you on your feet

Always.

There’s never a break.

Never a breather.

And the shape shifter?

It never dies.

That same shape shifter must be some sort of 

Possessor

That lives inside each of us

Stronger in some

Weaker in others

Because they’re the strong ones.

I must feel it because I’m weak. 

That must be it.

It’s ridiculous.
