La Tomatina

Every year in a village in Spain

Is a festival kind of insane,

For the people are stoked

To get totally soaked

By tomatoes and none will complain.

 

Thousands flock to the town, well-aware

That tomatoes will fly through the air.

Though they might seem like fools,

If they follow the rules,

They’ll experience something quite rare.

 

To ensure the event’s a success,

The tomatoes are squashed, more or less.

Then the hurling begins

And, through red-splattered grins,

All participants romp in the mess.
