Rainforest Lizard
exploring the vast terrain
just heard of in books, I’ve seen
dark noises invade my head
light blackened, by the high trees
envisioning figures far
yellow eyes, staring confused
wonderland of mystery
yet nightmare, of deception
uneven ground, rolls and flats
mossy vines, stretched for my neck
all colors of rainbow
careless birds sit in a tree
a gecko scurries across
the only friendly sight seen
try to catch it for comfort
but it knows the land better
wishing I knew where it went
a place I would rather be,
Caribbean paradise
brush shakes violently by me
looking could be a mistake
for curiosity kills
in this land, you’re all alone
