The Rotten Apple Poem by Samantha Belsey
The Rotten Apple
From the outside
you look perfectly apple-like
Rounded and pink
Rosy Skin
You sit in the
Fruit bowl like
The others
Juicy and unassuming
But you are hiding
A dark secret
You
Are rotten
To the core.
Powerful writing. Perhaps it's useful to remember that you can often eat the outside of an apple even if there are some bad bits in the middle and those bad bits make great compost to help things grow.
