&quot;It has been said, &#039;time heals all wounds.&#039; I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.&quot; <br /> ~ Rose Kennedy

Like the Wild jungle,
High school camouflages faces
Making the seen, Unseen.
Distance is mutated by the mind,
Converting Men into savage beasts.
Damaged and broken,
Their bodies sink to Earth,
Becoming apart of the Wild jungle.
Making the seen,
Unseen.
