Those Stringy Banana Thingys

When peeling a banana, do those stringy things annoy What purpose do they serve except to kill our joy Sometimes feel like a primate Swinging through the foliage I migrate But those stringys sure don't interfere with my ability to enjoy © Jack Ellison 2015

When pealing a ripe banana don't drop anything on the floor... For they can make you slip and become very sore... Tho it may be funny, it has been done before... Still it can yet make us chuckle to our core... And with that said, perhaps we can't ask for more.

They must serve some purpose other than to annoy us, Jack. Now my wondering mind wants to know.
