Fiftywords - Zoo Nightmare

in #fiftywords7 years ago (edited)


Awoke by a bang, a clashing and a ring,
lying like a rug where I have never been.
Prodded by electricity, I open my eyes,
to see alien figures poking me for a rise.
Frightened I jump, searching for escape,
I bonk my head again, the top of the cage.

This image is of Bua Noi translated to Little lotus... Google searching shows that this gorilla was stuck in this zoo for 30 years and may still be in the zoo, but some results say that Bua Noi is free.. Free the Gorillas !!
