Ciao !

You have 2 votes now.

I have a hunch that there is a double meaning to your entry. ( biggrin)

I read your notes.. speaking of the bananas pictured above the plantain is actually a type of banana, but the difference is the two have different taste/ flavour.

The plantain needs to be cooked to be enjoyable while our Chiquita banana is great just peeling it and enjoying it.

As for the double meaning we all know what a banana reminds us of... I can t speak personally but I have read that they are different despite being all "bananas"

The humour here is off the chart.

PS I hope it's not just MY naughty mind here making me a fool and you meant something else

    Haha in this case this was more of a political response to one of Harambe's angrier adversaries on this site, which you might see in a recent review on a Joe Biden piece. However the great thing about poetry is that it is open to various interpretations, all of which may be legitimate if not superior to the original intent, and I didn't mind your interpretation
    ; )

    Thanks for the killer six stars and sorry about getting back to this so late -- I was pretty sick and am just starting to get back to normal!

haha. This is the second poem I've read on this topic! This is funny because there seems to be a theme going on. Very creative and an enjoyable read. Made me laugh!

    Haha that's right. At least a third of my writings involve gorillas or bananas, and I was falling behind on my quota, hence a heavy bombardment was in order. Keep your eyes pealed for more...

Really? Oh, my! If someone on FanStory took you to task over this, I'd say it was politically motivated. It gets ugly on here, and sometimes bananas and plantains are sacrificed in the almighty name of politics. (It's in the subtext.)

Sending you my best today as always.
Sal :))

    You read right : )
    Someone wasn?t too happy to read criticism of their favorite political candidate, and took away stars to try to intimidate Harambe in another recent piece (you probably know which one haha). There will be at least another 9 months of election drama and I can't wait to ride the wave.
