fruit doctor

the doctor says
that you must have picked
up a bug
somewhere along
the way.
you roll your eyes.
and say, really?
I'm giving you three
hundred
dollars for that
diagnosis. you're
basically fine, he says.
you just need to
get some sleep, drink
fluids, and eat
some fruit. eat
lots of fruit.
as a matter of fact,
we have a nice selection
in the refrigerated
section of the office.
it's on your way
out as you pay your bill
mangos are delicious
this year. so are
oranges and gala apples.
oh, and try the seedless
red grapes.
sweetest ever.
