The young Skunk woke up in the zoo, earlier than usual..
It was hanging upside down with its claws, grabbing onto the cage top.
It was trying to see the world from a different angle. Wondering…

The Baboon was yelling from the near cage, spitting assuredly: “relax boy, there is nothing behind these prison bars.. so forget about it”
“Are we sentenced to stay here forever?”
The Skunk responded in awe.
You were born here, that’s your life, that’s it. Capish?” The Baboon murmured while taking a piss on the floor..

I pour my heart involuntarily into words, since I found that writing is the ultimate solution for a nightmarish sailing journey. I can still connect with you :)
