It has the texture of a very fibrous sweet potato, only it is not sweet. 

Its is also know in some countries as Peach Palm Fruit

 Quadrille #184 Smashing Poems  

Quadrille - Smash

When the watermelon smashed to the ground, 

it was as if the hope of a heatwave's passing just got dashed;

36 degrees C under the sun,

what a waste of delicious red cooling bites;

island breezes seem banished to fiction,

scourching hot days, reality.

Sonnet 30: When to the sessions of sweet silent thought

By William Shakespeare

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought

I summon up remembrance of things past,

I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,

And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste:

Then can I drown an eye, unus'd to flow,

For precious friends hid in death's dateless night,

And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe,

And moan th' expense of many a vanish'd sight;

Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,

And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er

The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,

Which I new pay as if not paid before.

But if the while I think on thee, dear friend,

All losses are restor'd, and sorrows end.
