Tripping At The Zoo

Dedicated to Cynthia, Romel, and Nina


Parents and children tripping over zoo animals with joy.
Look at all the excited children who
want some popcorn, soda, and an animal toy.
Orangutans in the sunlight are beaming
between cage bars, they see children screaming.
So many people, staring with white dotted eyes,
twitching, yet speechlessness without hi's or good-bye's.
At the zoo, animals are screeching and twitching.
Teenagers, take strolls wearing jeans with less stitching.
At dusk, all the people leave the animals behind.
Animals eat dinner, or what ever they may find.
Zoo animals, beneath midnight committed to the end.
When daylight begins at the zoo again,
The next day, a new tour of parents and children come back in,
tripping at the zoo with me, the crew, and all of you!
