If I were young again
My banana brain
Would be an expert
At peeling off
The yellow skin
Of life

Eating it
As my assertive
Right

Instead of the
Sensitive banana
To life

Not able
To make brave
Decisions
Of the simple
No and Yes

Curling up
Over life issues
With sensitive light

Then I would
Have been a
Very gifted bull
With strong horns
To admire life
As it should be
