Step aside and let the mango through, let the mango through. Move aside and let the mango through, let the mango through.

Last time we were at the beach There was a storm lightening We all bought fruit cherries and you and I bought mangos. I opened mine with my hands let the juice run down my face and mix with the rain drops. It was the most delicious ever. But now that I think about it you never ate yours. At least not in front of me.

Magnus is our mango tree and he is the best mango tree in the world. He has a kid now and hopefully the kid will grow up to be just as great as Magnus. So many mangoes, so little time. I bought a T-shirt at the Mango Festival at Fairchild Tropical Gardens. Now, there is a beautiful thing. Mango_Festival. When we had bumper crops, we'd sell mangoes on the street corner, peddle them from out of the trunk of our car. We parked right next to the bus stop. Sometimes people would tell us they were too expensive, and that they were cheaper at Publix. "Then go to Publix," my father would snap. Our mangoes were 200+ times better than the stringy Publix mangoes. Magnus fell down twice in hurricanes and I fear he doesn't have much longer to live.

Hey dumbening. The mango is not a citrus. It is a member of the family Anacardiaceae. Citrus is the family Rutaceae. Look it up, dumbening.

dear mr. gautama, i have a bit of a dilemma here. should i simply ignore the foolish child, being mindfully aware of the feelings that arise and watching them pass? use the opportunity for pedagogy, pointing out with loving kindness that it's a poem, and that nowhere do i imply that mangoes are citrus fruits, gently reminding the child to reread the _poem_ carefully? or tear the stupid fuckwit to shreds? namaste, jnk *** dear j, clearly, by the phrase, 'look it up,' the so-called bitch is trying to point out that they know something that you don't. this person obviously knows nothing about you or the vast wealth of knowledge and experiences and skills you have. by their very expression of the assumption that you are uninformed, they are, in fact revealing their own retardation (no offense to retards). and though you will, by this action, have to live an extra life or two as a nematode as karmic retribution, it will be worth it to tear the fuckwit to shreds. your friend (and don't forget, your inner nature), da buddha

Oh my, how did you know I was a child? Referring to one type of fruit while describing another is in bad taste. Since you disagree, feel free to tell me how idiotic this opinion is. Your poem was enjoyable until the word 'citrus'.

you're right. it _is_ wrong to blame the fish for being in said barrel. and besides, i'd rather toss a caddis pupa over an open stream anyway.

sorry, nom, apparently metaphor is no longer a viable tool for poetry, nor wine tasting. ~~~ this wine is, um, quite grapey. d'accord. 93 points. [ exerpts from: _Robert Parker and Friends: Tastings After the Edict_ copyright 2004 ]

fibers still caught in teeth remind the savage act of me of gnawing on the clumsy oracle bone of a pit to draw the vanilla-smooth juices in and down my chin and fingers to linger just a bit until impermanence settles in.

i see the rind and the rind tells me secrets---whispered delirium from someplace not so far away. tell me---why does the fruit taunt me? what does it want with a mind no longer balanced, no longer filled with an avarace so viscious it stings like citrus in your eyes? these questions and more, mr. mango...

i'm torn. i made my heart skip a beat to see someone besides me refer to plant families. but, they're also ignorant. the term citrus is used as a flavor descriptor. does wine really have raspberry in it? no, but it can have raspberry notes. also, plants in unrelated families can share the same flavor compounds.

1.) green, diced, lightly cooked with soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar and red chiles served over a bed of chopped greens, shallots, shredded cabbage and grated carrots (and maybe a little diced grilled chicken) 2. ripe to the point of being explosive with juice, carefully peeled and separated from the seed, best when cold and shared in a sticky kiss
