My life is nearly a picture on your wall
And yours, is a wall hiding my life

My hands are worn out,
Scratching the bars of freedom

This is not a cry for you to destroy the city zoo, just an expression I keep feeling, visiting a zoo, and looking into their eyes.
That's how I feel, though in some cases, living in captivity saves their lives.
What kind of life is this for them? I know I wouldn't want to live that way....

BTW
Thanks to fade-out suggestion, I updated the picture with slimmer borders. I agreed with his comment, they were too big.

That's creepy--it looks like a human hand. So much for only a few degrees of separation. Poor guy--the zoo where I live has them in a pit with grass and trees.
