Morning Sonnet

The news this morning was something new
Greece has a banana plantation near 
Mount Olympus, and they  are yellower and
bigger than bananas from Greenland 
 A British surgeon pleaded guilty to cutting 
off his legs to satisfy a sexual need
Try as I might, I struggle to understand how
The removal of legs can be sexually  necessary
On Thursday next week, they are removing  
a growth on my left side, can the surgeons 
be trusted to find and remove the cyst
