 "Jungle" Around Me

It's a jungle out there I see

Each time my window I look out.

Crime and sin out there sure does be.

I'm lucky, safe in here no doubt.

I'm not sure "jungle's" the right word.

Real jungles in wild nature are

Sane and sensible, not absurd.

Human "jungles" are ones bizarre.

I could be wrong but don't think so.

I watch paranoid and afraid

Folks from my window come and go.

All nature's woes are human made.

I'm in this human "jungle" true,

A lucky chimp, safe in a zoo.
