Paper JungleA Poem by MarshallA look at times past and my first career.Paper JungleI once lived in a paper jungle
conquered by post-it notes and formulas for living that didn't make sense. Soon the paper tigers came out of hiding with memos and memorandums growling fiercely at my recalcitrant behaviour, until I quit and carried my dreams into the wide open spaces where predators were few and far between with less incisors to cut you into shreds of broken being. I look back sadly at those who did not take the escape routes but stayed instead locked in these cages of comfort of malnourishment living lives of quiet defeat. The jungle is overgrown now. © 2014 MarshallAuthor's Note
