The mouth and the pineapple


The mouth

Is very greedy

It cries every time

It sees food

 

The slice of pineapple

Is small and kinda sour

It longs to be consumed

 

The mouth spots the pineapple

The pineapple spots the mouth

A spark of hunger flows from the stomach

It is fulfillment at first taste

 

The pineapple has finally been consumed

The mouth no longer feels greedy

For now
