A selection from For Bananafish:

A PERFECT DAY FOR BANANAFISH

No moon to howl at – just a
thin hard slice of sour orange candy in a perfect
balance resting suspended on the edge of day—
This is November and a time for
endings but the maple with its butter bright banana
yellow leaves leaps from the mist like flying fish

From tropic seas. Let us sail south, fish
for the moon among the islands, find a
beach and in the shadow of banana
trees build ourselves a fire, watch a perfect
yellow circle rise while we for
hours laugh til day…
