oh my darling serpentine

speak to me in snake tongue, please;

you understand it well.

a first language of sorts

and there are more on my tongue.

i have a second tongue too. you choose them,

i use them. they always fit the groove

of what you seek. wet and cold on aurals,

warm language sweats moist and wormy words

half-words. deformed, mostly yuk. sound of sin-speak sweet

speak to me in snakinged tongues

suggesting skittish bites

which make fevers rancid and

so much less watchful-watchful in the

old toothless way of tired and warmly worn replies
