In this jungle,
we lie undetected.
Even as the snakes,
bind themselves to fate.
The panther conspires,
pressing on its preys time.
While the world around,
questions its deadly intention,
pondering why.
yet still proceeds to feed the flame.

The way we watch the world go into chaos and let it so easily happen is very disturbing
