a five foot six pecan

by David Garner

crack you open
a five foot six pecan
looking on the inside
nothing’s on the inside
you're a shell
and there's no meat
nothing there for me to eat
crack you open
a five foot six pecan

I've found a few empty shells in my day, too. Bigger. I loved this, David!

wow... what an analogy. surreal and surprising and really works. I love the fresh nutty emptiness full of insight.
