Footsteps in crescendo heading in its direction As they descend the wail of the beast is now but a whisper A man known for taking what is not his own Now feels the brunt of sharp stone The darkness above which gave him comfort;betrayed him Hands reach for him from all cardinal points His screams cut the stagnant air like a well sharpened knife But his screams;those screams,go unnoticed The crescendo turns to diminuendo The dirt is now saturated with red Justice had been served The justice of the jungle -Sharifa Palmer

Jungle Justice
Footsteps in crescendo heading in its direction As they descend the wail of the beast is now but a whisper A man known for taking what is not his own Now feels the brunt of sharp stone The darkness above which gave him comfort;betrayed him Hands reach for him from all cardinal points His screams cut the stagnant air like a well sharpened knife But his screams;those screams,go unnoticed The crescendo turns to diminuendo The dirt is now saturated with red Justice had been served The justice of the jungle -Sharifa Palmer
