I thought somebody
put the banana
on top of my car
to ripen. However,
that is poor food strategy.
So maybe somebody
laid it there because he
had to tie his shoe
or answer a text
or adjust the leash
on his dog.
I would have left it,
but it looked good.
I checked it for suspicious marks
and needle pricks.
I figured the peel
was protection enough 
against germs and
noxious cooties.
So I ate it.
It was just fine.
