TheFacelessMan:


Once upon a time i was a zookeeper in San Diego.

I was whistling to myself, " i am the king of the jungle, lord of the rings" at the top of my voice as i went to feed the chimpanzees in Cage 7. The parrots had joined in, providing a chorus.


Suddenly, i noticed that i was the only one singing.

Every animal had turned silent , you could almost hear a pin drop ! It seemed even the air had paused blowing.

I slowwwwwwllllyyyyyyy turned back , fearful of what i would see...

I had forgotten to lock Cage 9, Kumbaya's cage!



Kumbaya was a giant silverback gorilla at least 400 pounds in weight and 7 feet tall.

He had slowly opened the latch of his cage and he was with me in the corridor, 10 steps from me.... all his sharp pointy teeth on display

The ground trembled and shook as he sprang towards me.... i was transfixed to the spot, 5 seconds and i would die.....

3 seconds..... he was upon me and his 2 huge palms landed on my shoulders...... preparing to tear my throat out



I couldn't bear to look, i closed my eyes.

I could smell his fetid, stinking breath as he opened his jaws..... i silently said my last prayers, soon to rest in peace or pieces ?

And...........and.......

I felt something liquid and hot on my face. BLOOD?! My belly was already jelly!

Trembling like a leaf, collapsing under his weight, i still couldn't open eyes... i just peeked through eyelashes..

Kumbaya was licking my face in appreciation for the song i was singing!!!!

That is hate speech. What do you mean by imagine that from a foreigner? Is he not human or he doesnt have rights?
