But, hang on, the humans are neither stingy, nor do they
lack a conscience.
One banana is flung in his direction, then another.
The monkey does not baulk at the boulders and rocks in his
path,
but heads towards the banana bonanza.
One banana knocks him on the head,( Thankfully he does
not drop dead!)
Ah, this one is a beauty!
The monkey bounds towards the bountiful booty.
The human has done the good deed of the day and soothed
his conscience.
The simian is now in a mood gay,
a couple of bananas have kept his hunger at bay.
But, the good deed has made the man hungry;
he peels a banana, and carelessly hurls the peel,
narrowly missing the garbage bin.
