Savage Jungle Young boys went cruising up Sunset Blvd waiting for the black night to lurk in the shadows Bad boys went down to Hollywood and Vine high in the Savage Jungle on meth and alcohol eyes are aglow Wolves of Los Angeles City of Angels City of Lost Souls The wolves wandered the night among the shadows Beware oh mortal souls the Savage Jungle is alive Young boys cruising Hollywood and Vine the hookers and divas & pretty boys The Wolves prey on all The rich in their golden masks they hide behind in the cafes and restaurants, in the theaters and movie houses Howls at the full moon the young ones fled Howling in capture They headed back down to the valley trying to escape the howling The Wolves held their souls no escape for them now Howling, Howling Howling for the lost souls in the Savage Jungle Angels in tears flying high above the neon glow They couldn't stop the Wolves Howling in the hearts of the young boys

I like this, Dale... a different topography and landscape for you... but still your deft cinematic lens in the shape of your poetic tongue and eye has given us both scintillating character sketches and a screenplay all in one. Very much enjoyed the double metaphor with both the play on jungle and the duallism of good and bad... Wonder what Ginsberg would make of this?????? :))))) xoxoxox

Yep! That just about sums it up. Good piece of work, Dale.
