Why do people
have to squeeze
the fruit to SEE
if it is ripe?
You ask them and receive
a perturbed look suggesting,
somehow, you’re
the one disturbed.
I put these signs on
trays of fruit which said,
“RIPE, BLIND PEOPLE
ONLY MAY SQUEEZE.”
After she had squeezed
a sighted woman complained
that Blind People
couldn’t read the sign.
I told her emphatically,
the sign
wasn’t FOR
the blind.
