The Lizard King
A wicked,forked tongue lies behind
The parting of his beautiful lips
Spinster of words you are,
Spoken with the fluant ease of liquid silver
They draw me in as a moth to flame
And like a fool.....I go
Subdued by niceties and half truths,I smile while he claws maddly at my deepest desires
And devours me whole like a desperate,starving thing
All hail the lizard king!
May he be revealed as the reptile he truly is

Serpentine.....I like that.I suppose that wisdom comes with age most of the time,but we don't always listen.Or maybe I'm just getting old.Thanks for the read,John.

just kidding but aren't all those snakes alike..
lovely write, so true how it goes
being a food source is no fun though.
