But, there are so many trees in the Jungle.
No television programme prompts
so much discussion of those who
like it and those who do not.
The setting, a beautiful rainforest
in Australia, full of lushness
raindrops dripping for the trees.
The horror of the candidates
disgusting tasks, eating the
uneatable by sensible people.
The jolly, geniality of the
shows award-winning presenters,
candidates desperate for notoriety.
Can the money earned by taking
part, really compensate for the
lack of dignity? Being a laughing-stock.
Young people hoping to create a career,
older people trying to re-create theirs
some, maybe just in it for the money.
What do the real inhabitants of
the rainforest think about the invasion
from the other side of the world?
Before they came, and after they
have gone, the majestic, ancient
trees will still grow up and older.
