Under Seige
Yep, that's me! I find myself completely defenseless, with no arsenal with which to end this stand ~ off. They come at me every single time, all at once. It is a never ~ ending barrage of absolute...Rottenness!

I fear that I have tried every tactic known to man. Or, at least all of the ones that I have been privy to listen in on. Not one of them even puts a dent in the advance of the enemy.

I never wanted to become archenemies. I certainly did not intentionally seek out a battle. Truly...I desired nothing more than to be allies, but, I guess since they are foods, and I am ultimately going to devour them...they see my allegiance as nothing more that a facade. They label me traitor, and plan to pulverize (literally) my every attempt.

Alright...alright. I suppose I have made you wait quite long enough to be let in on the identity of said enemies, but I needed to know, first, where your true loyalties lie.

The enemy are....*looks discreetly around for spies*....no other than the banana and the avocado!

I know, right?! They are absolute monsters!

Wait..What?! I have lost you completely??

Well then. Let me just lay it out for you, plain as day, alright?

Once a week, we buy bananas and avocados. They have become a staple on our grocery list. Yes, the list that I forget at home, but remember in my head, thank you.

All is well, at first. They sit quietly in their respective camps, disturbing no one.

The bananas are nice and firm; even a little green. This is great, as they will last longer. The avocados are extremely green and as hard as a rock.

Then, two or three days later....they move in for the attack!! Every single one of them and all at once. Not even a bugle blown to give me warning!

I pick up a banana to slice into my yogurt. Ughh...no longer firm at all. A wee bit squishy, and...where did all of those bruises come from? It certainly wasn't from my ranks, I can guarantee you that!

I pick up another...same shape. Another, and another, all the way through the bundle. I can't work with that at all.

I quickly run to the avocados, which I use in my smoothies. Not one, not two, but all of them that were hard and green only a moment ago, have become so mushy that you can feel them dissolving inside of their skin!

How utterly disrespectful. Traitors turned archenemies overnight!

There shall be no truce! No compromise. No leniency and no mercy shown!

They will be thrown straight into the trash dungeon to rot until they...complete their Decay!
