Ugh! There are so many of those out there, wearing human skin; if only they had chosen to be loyal dogs or better yet, bunnies! This was an excellent one.

For me this is a post War scenario of sadness in regards of the 'reality' of a material world. Kind wishes, Kai

There are still some places where the vultures are outnumbered. Something good also rises out of what was once ruins. You have highlighted well one of natures irksome details that tests our ability to cope. Some just lie down and never get up again. Best regards David

Yes the vultures can move in quickly and destroy a life time of work. Unscrupulous people who will destroy to get ahead. love phyl

A striking monoku, Anne-Lise. This reminds me of certain inheritors who unscrupulously try to lay hands on somebody's lifetime earnings/possessions. ~ Have a lovely weekend...hugs // paul
