Eyes
On the
Back of my
Neck, watching me closely
Death staring me down, watching
For any sign of weakness
Walking in the jungle all alone
Wishing for more sunlight to pierce the
Veil of the canopy of the trees above
Misery in the shape of a panther leopard laying
In wait for the next unsuspecting victim of its claws

Oooo, this was so dark and intense! I loved it!
Evocative, both in the real & in the metaphorical sense.
Nice! I especially loved the last lines: 'Misery in the shape of a panther leopard laying In wait for the next unsuspecting victim of its claws' Ominous and dark! Well done!
💓 Love it 💓
