I'm so afraid I will spill the beans

There is much to say about ambiguity,
much to tell in regard to her words--
the phrases she use that bind up inside,
that pull like pumpkin from the vine.

There is much to tell about suffering.
The way it is immediate and unrelenting.
The manner in which it divides,
and sifts the wheat.

There is much to discuss regarding pineapple,
its juice of potent sting to wounds.
The way it stands next to cantelope
and leaves its scent on orange skin.
