green chilies and yellow lemons

Waiting to be unleashed; finally here
blink of an eye; maturity.
surreally authentic;
they ameliorate.

Lost in vanity; finally there
jack of all, master of one,
bewitching and deceiving;
with reluctance, they palliate.

Strangling web knit; finally unfair
malevolent clutches;
you reap what you sow,
you pay until you’ve paid;
malignant clutches.

Now they can’t befriend.
Yellow lemons and green chilies;
Green chilies and yellow lemons.

    whoooohooo. nice work on this. I love it. The ramble is actually perfect sense. I like that you chose an incredibly unique theme and stayed with it

    WE learn many many lessons, yet we still fail to understand all the meanings...lol.

    I think this is one great piece of poetry.
