snake

[Graystar]

Senior snake, the old and wise Señor?Is this an honoring form of address to an old and wise snake?
may I take your council free of demise? Weak flow and almost repeating the question in the next question.

Or will you take what I have to say
as a tasty surprise? Are you meaning to treat this old wise snake flippantly?

Will I meet your demise? Are you now threatening the snake?

Sorry senior, my eyes are burning
harshly from the sun. So what does this have to do with asking council of a snake?

Snake, out in the desert I can't
smell what is food or rot. Now you are going to noses! Where's the real question?

You've lost me.


How do you survive in this
death like place?

Rise, said the snake.
In the desert
every treat you must take.

Fake or otherwise a lie can be
history or demise.

I am just a hungry desert snake
if you thrive on lies,
ill be your demise.

I don't lie I just slither
on by, looking for those things,
where weak resides.

Things that tickle my belly inside.
