he said my name is bananas



i am bananas

he said 	plainly

and no			there was no snail on that coffeepot

before she arrived



a bullet with	hands and legs

& familiar like spaghettios 	or 70's sitcom shows



they were nicer when		i was their newswriter

didn’t want a negative story

& i was a good pal			made her her very own pot

but snails, she exclaimed

i cannot drink this with snails 



he can attest i told her/ inquired of him	what is your name sir

he said my name is bananas		i am bananas

no there were no snails		



she just raised an eyebrow 		& asked with a name like that

can you really be sure?
