Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

Recipe - Successfully

     I tried to skin her, but no dice
        Tried again, no luck twice

     Cut her with a knife, an utter failure
        So, I stood her up, tried to impale her

     When that didn’t work, I felt like a jerk
        Time for some hands-on handiwork

      I shook her and squeezed her, out came her juice
        All squishy and gushy, her moorings came loose

      Honest to goodness, she smelled sweet from all angles ~
        Mangoes taste best slightly chilled if serving them mangled
