yet to speak

a snake charmer
the dance of trance
your distraction is lust
when love holds you
in the vice like grip of a boa
you take control
helpless
its then you strike
dance with the serpent
a strange coldness comes ore
sigh of relief
the spirits of our dead
lift a large cross
of my heavily laiden shoulders
the vermin creeps in
spreading desease on the crops
you have everything to gain
i have it all to lose
i am not walking away
i have just lost
i have it all to say
in time

You know snakes love Florida because we are a tropical climate where I live at in Florida. We had a really cold spell one time and the snakes were being found dead it appears snakes and others in their reptile family do not like cold
