His Passage Through The Jungle Was Frought With Peril
Especially At The Lake Crossing
The Crossing Barge
He Got upon The Barge And Pushed Off
Almost blind To The Snakes
The Giant Rattlers Hung Down Unto The Water
Their Heads Held Low And Close
His Heart Raced
Pounded As He Tried To Maintain A Healthy distance
From Each Of The Predators Lurch
"This Is No Life" he thought
The Terror, The Fear
This Was Not The Way He Had Wished To Live
The Fat One Entered The Water
And Swam Below The Barge
Nothing Happened
Though His Heart Wasn't Fooled
As He Came Closer To The end
Appearing Ahead Was A Crushingly Large Boa
"Or Was It A Python" he had thought
No Matter
It's Gaze Never Left Him
Locked And Ready To Run
He Knew Then This Wasn't A Good Idea
A Boa That Size Could Probably Take Him From The Barge
Take Him Below The Surface
Would He Drown
Or Be Crushed First
