A Bad Banana

i wake up lost in the jungle of morning
crying out to a monkey for help

he always comes
but sometimes he gets lost too

one wrong turn
suddenly there's no escape
suddenly there is only doom

aware of our surroundings-
our surroundings are the salivating jaws
of every ferocious beast

as the very bones in us fill with terror
we can feel where our flesh is most tender
where teeth will sink with ease

the jungle wins
the jungle is the fruit of death
and life was only a peel
