Weird Jungle

An old man with his palm on a young boy’s lap,
   Pray, did someone tell the prey he is prey?


A retired tired with own child banging at the gate,
   Is it time to feed the impatient vulture?


A couple waiting for an anniversary to make love,
   Why did they forget to be animals?


Young adults measuring future on a faulty balance,
   Do they feel when teeth sink into fresh kill?


Teens announcing friends as laissez-faire,
   Hush, isn’t it an old deception to hunt?


Even babies forget to feign innocence,
   Why did the prey turn predator so soon?
