cut up a pineapple
at 5 am
cause what else
do you do at that time
decided to save the top
and try to plant it
but i know it won't
survive
i plucked away
the lower leaves,
will plant and
take care of it,
but i know it
won't grow
it may sprout
some shallow roots
and give false hope
for a bit,
but will eventually die
like everything else
it would grow
beautifully in a
better climate

and one day
it will
