Ciao poet!

You now have 3 votes!

When I read it the first time , I thought it was the whackiest think I had read in a while.

On second and third read I realised that it is smart.


Best of luck!









The committee is alway encouraging people to be original , well yours entry is exactly that.

I gave this 3 stars, not because its not very clever, but because its too clever.
I can tell its clever, and it reads as if its clever, but the trouble is, I cant understand it and therefore enjoy its cleverness.
I am really sorry about that, but in a platform like this, I do believe that everyone needs to be able to enjoy the work, and if it needs an explanation, then people may be left either feeling frustrated because they cant understand...or just feeling stupid because they aren't smart enough to understand (like me).
I really wish I could though, I feel as if I am missing something important

    Hi CJ, thanks for your comments. I am just poking a bit of fun at theology and the site writing contests. Everyone does not have to enjoy the same work. For example, a lot of people here are obsessed with Trump, climate change, cats, or nostalgia. If I don't understand something, I don't have to feel stupid. It's an opportunity to dig deeper and learn something. Then again not every turd needs to be closely examined, sniffed, nibbled, and given a Yelp review. But that's just my opinion.

    Banana good. Eat banana.

I didn't know what the heck I was reading, which is what made it so great! Thank you for sharing and good like with your banana-focused piece. I look forward to reading more.
