A Jerk's Journey to Jungle

Cracked moonlight caresses every carnation flower, While my sight sees a salty sea seven miles away from here . The moon burns to ashes as the old ocean grows golden with every growing hour, I can see a ball of fire rising from the higher mountains far from near . Hypnotized , mesmerized are these dazzling deer's eyes, In the woods, on the wood, sits a sparrow chirping to the hottest sun in the sky. So soft is this ball of fur, as appealing as it is when a human lies , But a Grizzly, what an irony! , oh it's cuteness! , a hug and you die. The artist might be short of the variety of paint , so he made it as green as it could be ; Or he wasted his palette of colors on that rainbow after a pouring day. Cotton on the land , cotton in the sky , as cottony as it could be ; Oh yes! a sapphire , no just a crystal of snow , after getting struck by a sun ray. A cute chameleon, changing colors, a camouflage , like a cruel human does to his pal; and then a body wrapped in a newspaper, black and white strips eating leaves, Oh what a beauty! , a sleeping beauty , a sloth sleeping by the Sal; everybody wants it , but not everybody gets it , yes this is where peace lives . To the Jungle , yes in the wild woods , I wish I were an animal with hair and no clothes ; 'Cuz they might be naked , but they don't wear clothes of lies and hypocrisy. Fake faulty tears and true terrible lies , they don't take false oaths ; Yes in the forest , where peace is the emperor , there ain't absolute autocracy , painful plutocracy and devilish democracy .
