"Why Fruit Ninja?"
"What makes you so happy
About slicing and dicing fruit?"
"I don't understand."
I hear it all the time.
But I can't explain
Why slicing fruit with a giant knife
Brings so much joy.
Honestly, I find it a bit odd
That they can't see
Everything in front of their eyes.
It's plain to see.
For me, at least,
It's a simple choice.
I can slice the fruit,
Or slice my wrists.
I can bring pain to myself
Or the fruit.
Which one
Would you prefer?
I prefer the cutting
of my wrists.
However, society thinks
Cutters are insane.
We have to fit
The "socially acceptable" standard
So I'll spend my days slicing fruit.
My nights will be
Consumed by bleeding.
Bleeding wrists.
Serving their justice for my crimes.
Fruit ninja by day.
Wrist ninja by night.
