I started
out in life at a very young age. One of my earliest memories is
of the trucks, the trucks that would bring bananas to my village.
But
we could not eat the bananas. We were merely the banana keepers,
the ones who sheltered the bananas until the ships were ready for
them. We cared for the bananas, nurtured them, treated them as if
they would one day be our own to consume.

My
mother said to me once, "Boy, if you can't keep your undershorts
clean then make sure when you go off and die you go where no-one
will find you."
I
know we've all heard similar warnings from our mothers.

I
am a classically trained fig who responds well to poetry that almost
rhymes. My favourite animal is the Giant Raccoon although a good
dead pigeon comes a close second. If you would like to learn more

No...
wait... I've got it... not there.
