The tale of acceptance from the jungle of Sumatra

The tale of acceptance from the jungle of Sumatra

Everyday I am fighting through the jungles of Sumatra 
The great serpent with two heads 
Seeks me 
I run this way and that 
My sweat seeping through pores
Finally I am confronted by the great Satan, the snake with two heads

With a tongue hissing 
I sit with fear 
Frozen by my own death 
Poisoned by life 
Killed by the devil 
Ah, the Amphisbaena has arrived
It seeks me 
Tracks me down

I am free falling 
Through the heavens 
Death is my own humanity 
Life has been slayed, perhaps?  
I swing through the jungles
Truimphant and jubilant 
Two head serpent chasing me
Forever running 

The jungle is vast 
Trees everywhere in my way 
If you want to scream
You can, it's there in front of you 
I tried to fight it, 
If you want to feel scared, 
you can 
Or instead, accept
