Wordlessly, <br />
|
|
|
|
|
I smacked the coffee-stain <br />
|
|
|
|
|
on its rump- <br />
|
|
|
|
|
And checked- <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Was it gone? <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe, the sea - where I had sent it to - was not its home, <br />
|
|
|
|

but then, <br />
|
|
|
|
|
neither was I; <br />

|
|
Or, I could no longer be

During a durable durian season <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Tourists carefully took a taste <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Oh! Wheezing and sneezing <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Some abstained <br />
|
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
|
Durian, so divisive <br />
|
|
|
|
|
The pulp, so cohesive <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Its spikes, can't help but pierce <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Eat it thrice, does it bring tears? <br />
|
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
|
Run away from the porcupine-husk <br />
|
|
|
|
|
It gets solitude, at last <br />
|
|
|
|
|
A protective shell repels; <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Invites lovers; disgusts all else <br />
|
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
|
Durian, what is it? <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Must be some evil treat! <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Creamy flesh, pungent smell <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Don't complain about this hell <br />
|
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
|
Nest of centipedes, lay in wait <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Come ye, brave hunters, <br />
|
|
|
|
|
'tis not too late! <br />
|
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
|
'tis harvest season — <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Who wants some? <br />
|
|
|
|
|
Durian-lovers — <br />
|
|
|
|
|
I bid you come!
