SNAKE
Laughter lost in twilight,
Lost on the moonlight,
Blue light of the moon.
Cast on a knife edge,
Balanced on the thin wedge
Of the lip of a spoon.
Flame boiled in flaked oil,
Snake oil and snake coiled
Roll me and paper me in
Laughs on a knife-edge
Pledged on a thin wedge;
My sweet heroin.
Lost on the moonlight,
Blue light of the moon.
Cast on a knife edge,
Balanced on the thin wedge
Of the lip of a spoon.
Flame boiled in flaked oil,
Snake oil and snake coiled
Roll me and paper me in
Laughs on a knife-edge
Pledged on a thin wedge;
My sweet heroin.
