He mistook her for a monkey
Picking fruit
In a tree behind their house.
He fired a shotgun at
What he thought was a monkey
In a Mangosteen tree.
His wife had used a ladder
To climb into the tree—
She was picking the tropical fruit
They had raised 13 children.
The man— causing death through recklessness
She—pronounced dead on arrival.
