Green Banana’s
A time is reached in life if one remains
Alive to tell the tale: That certain things
He once performed routinely, ascertains
The notion, habits must desist that brings
About awareness: His mortality.
Employment ends; Retirement is here.
The monthly saving wanes. Frugality
Submits to lavish tastes. The thirty year
Installment loan is paid. But now he’s glum.
Himself avoiding buying banana’s
That are unripe for fear his death my come
Before they ripen. Shakespeariana
Unfolding: Final act that brings a frown
The man’s demise. They ring the curtain down.
