I loved Candyland as a boy,
The excitement of winning,
They told me I could win this game.

I feel disgusting, dirty.
We waded through mosquito crypts,
And shallow, muddy water,
Making our way on pointe on the carpet of leaves,
Dodging mouse traps.
I started on the cigarettes,
The smoke blends in perfectly with the fumes,
Of warfare.
They decide to fumigate,
Too many pests in the jungle,
