Coconut

 

The coconut is 

like my hardheaded teenager.

I realise this after seeing 

the burning red mole-like scar 

on my little finger


This coconut that I held 

in my palm a few days ago 

And hit hard on its skull 

to get to the fruit...


As a retaliation, 

the split halves fought back 

to seal the crack,

biting my little finger

right at the circle of breach
