I am like a jackfruit on the tree. <br />To taste you must plug me quick, while fresh: <br />the skin rough, the pulp thick, yes, <br />but oh, I warn you against touching -- <br />the rich juice will gush and stain your hands <br /> <br /> <br />Translated by Nguyen Ngoc Bich <br /> <br /> <br />Anonymous submission.<br /><br />Ho Xuan Huong<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-jackfruit/
