Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for June 23, 2023

Land of “disenchantment”.

Chiefy should be sleeping heavily after all the raging through the day, I wonder what he dreams about. Breakfast perhaps?

That fat slobberish chief must be awake drooling about the upcoming white boy BBQ feast with lots of weiners and sausage! Betty is overdone and ready to be plucked off the spit and carved family-style. Oh boy, are the Unga-Bungas going to PO’d when they realize those white boys have escaped!

“Make no noise” says the guy who routinely bellows at the top of his lungs whenever he kills something….

“Try” is the operative word.

Tarzan: Now, where is that crochet hook?

Fortunately, whoever Tarzan is ever rescuing at the moment always allows him several days to do it.

Yes, because picking up the bow, arrows and guns and having them clang against each other will create no noise.

The night holds many secrets .

Not tells me some guard animals will be roaming outside now and that Tarzan will kills them.

Tarzan: “Chief? You up?”

In the early going after a Gomongoni (black hairless ape) had killed his Mongoni mother, Kala, he had a vicious hate foe them until, he met and became, after a struggle for survival, close friends.

Not making any sound is impossible. Our breathing or a heart beating makes sounds. I was once in a place so quiet that the sound I heard I finally realized was a bug walking by. What you need to do, though, is not make noise. Which is to say a sound loud enough that it can be distinguished over the other sounds around.

Just a thought.

Tarzan comes

On little cat feet

He sits looking

Over harbor and city

On silent haunches

And then kills everyone
