    Lost In the Rainforest

    Mid riotous funeral greenery
    Life's savage splendor unveiled
    The hidden hairy mysteries
    Furred, feathered, and scaled

    Soft sunlight filtered through
    The verdant dome above somewhere
    A splash of brilliant plumes
    Flapping through the moisture-laden air


    In all this mayan madness
    In this fearful garden of beauty
    A sudden greenout, vegetable blindness
    Awakening ancestral memory
