What Jane Said to Tarzan in a Moment of Loneliness

novella

Active Member
The treehouse you belong too high,
The wretched jungle hot and cluttered.
Nothing here can be fixed, just is.
What have I done with my life?
I just came here to where I am, that’s it.

The silence I have given over to,
Bigger than a world of noise,
Full of all the unsaid things. I hear them all.
Humming like a tight-skinned drum
With only me inside. The heavy air, my breath,
Vibrates like the jungle full of bugs.

Yes, I can return to the cruise liner, the fete,
The typing pool, just as I was, unscathed,
As lily-pale and soft as I ever was,
Wear beaded dresses and take society
Like the waters at Bern
But I would miss the days of dappled light,
Would miss Boy, Cheetah, lying naked on the leaves,
And the long low swings on your vine.
