Yup, it sure is a jungle out there -- concrete in the physical sense; dog-eat-dog and big-fish-swallow-little-fish in the metaphysical (sense). ~ Reality checked

Your words tell it like it is Line and I like the way you repeat 'it's a jungle out there' reinforcing the truth. Great poem dear Line. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
