Jungle In Pain
for people with pain
My people
My imperfect people
Zebras and giraffes
Labeled different
Since prehistoric times
Since donkeys and horses making love
Making baby mules
Different and tribal
Judgmental of my people
Apes orangutans and monkeys
Calling us names
Lower creatures
Naked prejudice
Against people with pain
Because of pills
Taking pain pills
Or not acting saintly
With pain unbearable pain
Pain unbearable pain
Forests on fire
Burning limbs
Wishing me jump ship
In search of a jungle
Dreaming of zebra giraffe days
Pregnant dreams and dangers
Where savage everywhere
Here or in the jungle
