my heart as a banana
Peel away the florid prose
or a kernel of truth
in my poems
Peel away the big words that
I have used as sword and shield
Peel away the wit that I
try to keep about me
Peel away what I write
and often what I say
Then you will see only
the heart that
only wants to shower you
with love and bask in
the glow of yours
