Me Too
Poetry June Challenge

he is my summer nightmare
he never bothers about how I feel
he does all that to me what he wills
no matter it’s the brightest part of the day or the darkest part of the night
no matter what time it is he harasses me
all he loves is my flesh and the skin
he licks and sucks like a hungry monster draining me of all sweetness swallowing all my flavor turning my color bright yellow to pale
Wish I transform into a man and he a juicy mango
To take my revenge…

Summer — the mango season has arrived.
Any mango lovers here?
I am a humongous mango lover.
But I wonder, if mango loves me? Maybe no, considering what I do with it.
Everyone eats mangoes in their own way. Even at my home, each one has their own style.
My dad peels off the skin and cuts the edible flesh into tiny pieces and eats with a spoon.
I don’t have that much patience. I love eating it as a whole fruit. I massage the fruit for at least five minutes making it soft, then make a tiny prick and suck all the juice, and finally open it and lick the remains until the bright yellow seed turns as pale as dead. Disgusting? Don’t judge me lol.
My husband would say, “If that mango had a tongue to speak, it will curse you.” Lol
Will it really? It freaks me out.
This inspired me to write this poem.
