The asphalt jungle.

Bricks, stone, Asphalt
watchout for the assault
No trees or gorillas
No lions tigers or monkeys
maybe a few horses
and donkeys
No tarzan swinging
or jungle birds singing

Houses dawn the streets
Candy stores sells sweets
on the corners
the wild animals meets
At nights it isn't safe
to walk the streets

Even the police aren't safe
carrying guns
The priest and clergy behind
closed doors screw the nuns
The crooked politicians
try to act like magicians
sooner or later they too
will need the physicians

interesting interpretation of the state of affairs in the street. i like the comparative to the jungle, which may seem more tame than the street these days.

thank you, ~D.
