Grab a banana
Go stand in the balcony in your pyjamas
Slowly eat it while basking in the afternoon sun
Meditate on the lush experience of indulgent fruity consumption
Each measured, purposeful, mindful bite
A surprise full of sweet flavour
Mourn what could have been, the tree this banana's seeds will never birth
Its destiny was to live and die for me
The least I owe it is my single-minded devouring
Thankful, always for life's simple pleasures
