Guavas a nation´s envy
The round plump fruit skin smooth or lumpy
Why would it be better in another country
Fuller jucier and sweeter than the promise land
What treats could this one produce from the jam making hand?
The tropics compete in subtle yellow shades and varied sizes
quality of the creamy pink inner flesh will be judged
The name will be dropped and a monopoly will rise
like an incriminated corporation that won´t budge
That dry motley trunk that curves and sheds it´s skin like snakes
Holding bucket loads of sweet round fruit orchard planned
The perch for many a seed spreading parrot´s sake
The cause for envy among producers of guava jam
The colour of flags will be stained
Violent harvests now those farmers neglect grains
There can be no real blame
Because like alot of fruit it all tastes the damn well same
