Amazon / Abu Karim

I have a personal jungle of my own

that is situated in Brazil named Amazon.

My mind always resides there alone.

Many canals and ditches in the world

have become ruined, and many rivers

have become extinct from the space of

geography. Now inconceivable that

once they would run constantly.

Many wild animals of the world

work in oil mills at human’s homes.

But still now Amazon is intact

Where I have kept my entire secret.
