Growing Up

there were moments

i couldn’t stomach

whole foods

The magic drink

coloured bright orange

was a staple

between meal times

a weapon in

the kitchen armoury

four silver prongs

taking on vegetable, meat or fruit

Tomatoes i’d eat

after being crushed and beat

and served up on bread

to make sure i was fed

Bananas broke up

and served up in some rice

or a vanilla custard

that tasted nice
