The Prince of Ambush
Trek you through darkled jungle,
but please do be aware
The ‘Prince of Ambush’ watches,
he has a steadfast stare
That gaze is fixed and steady,
its purpose to prepare
For the moment that’s coming,
you may not have a prayer
Beware the ‘Prince of Ambush’,
he waits in brushwood … there!
