When life gives you lemons
squirt them in the faces of those who make you feel excluded from the fruit basket
Even though the blackberry may not be the sweetest of all fruits,
it is not okay to shun it because so
Throw the rotten fruits off of a cliff and lick your fingers when you’re done
The feeling of pins and needles let you know that you have just freed yourself from all burdens
Mother nature doesn't make mistakes,
all fruits are delicate to someone
Eventually, the clouds whistle and the rain pours down on those rotten fruits left behind
Karma.
