Snake Nightmares
Slitherings

Sleeping, and it slithers
And generally comes when not called
Scaly and short-tempered
A death bite for us all
The head, like a penis
And its tail a whipping cord
Its hisses of sweet lullabies
Are tunes best to avoid
Another bite, another scream
But no way out of this dream
Just my sizzling flesh on fire
And a sign "Mongoose For Hire!"
