Durian Poem

Durian Durian Durian

A spike of taste not quite the intimidation

Bulbous, silky fillings of yellow gave the prickle a name

Smells aside, you might renounce its fame

Don’t forget to get the best bargain.

Boxed and wrapped around in neat white styrofoam

Or fresh from chopped shells and pulled apart pockets

Enjoy the fullness and tenderness in the fruit you shall

Share quickly or savour only for yourself!
