Hey John, that idea tickles me -- dwindling from a powerful businessman to a poet. But I can't really see it here, and I'm wondering about these lines (below); does the "parachute" allude to parachute contracts, and could it mean that the narrator has retired and there isn't enough reason to wear suits anymore?

They’re gone, all gone, on golden parachutes,
to seek the sun and gargle chardonnay;
