ThE oRaNge

by Chritty - Aries



I walk pass it everyday
the orange that sits on my table
I bought it a week a go
and some how forgotten all about it
it’s now bruised and covered in mold
one side is slowly caving in
and the stench is unbearable
day by day little fruit flies
swarm the rotting fruit
filling themselves with delight
I guess I’m just to lazy to throw it away
or maybe it holds a symbolic meaning
perhaps it looks the way I feel
rotten, slowly metamorphosing into a mush
a big hollow shell full of useless mush
slowly oozing out of the sides
don’t you just love that word oozing
three days ago it smelled just as sweet
and the juiciness made my mouth water
but I left it alone
ignored it pushed it to the back of my mind
now there is a craving for something sweet
I am ready for the orange
my life is at an ease 
but unfortantly
its rotten, moldy and covered in green slime
yum!!!!!!
