Beans about Apples

                                               When i encountered her, i figured
                                                            she was an apple.
                                                              She was round,
                                                                 red in color,
                                                                       ripe
                                                       and she looked... delicious.
                                                        " Yep " i said to myself
                                                        "  she's an apple, alright. "
                                              So when she told me that she didn't fall
                                                    from the tree directly above her
                                                         I thought.... hmmmm, well...
                                                                           ok
                                                          then... where???????????
                                       " Oh heck, noooooooooooooo-o-o," she insisted
                                               " not THAT tree, no way. uh-uh, nope."

                                                                       Whew
                                                           I was glad to hear THAT...
                                                     because from what i could tell
                                                     THAT tree had some.... issues.

                                               and me? i would make the big mistake
                                           of believing a story-teller AND the story told...
            
                                            " That an apple could rock and roll it's way
                                                                   across a farm.
                                                               Travel down a road.
                                                 Park itself right under a bad ju-ju tree
                                                          and act like fresh produce
                                                        to some wayward passer-by
                                                  that doesn't know beans about apples
                                                                        or beans
                                                       or some LAW discovered by one
                                              um..Mr. Sir Isaac ...uh, Olivia-John-Newton. "
                                                                             ouch !
