AVOCADOS
You put on the list
I found in the bin
And purchased
They sat on our counter
Neglected
Until I finally
Brought their hollowing
Rippled corpses
To the compost

Yipe! They do go bad pretty fast when you purchase them ripe; gotta use 'em quicklike!
Though the metaphor here is palpable.

Thank you. I originally was way too unsubtle and started it with "I am the avocados..." - laughing at myself for that
