The Boa Constrictor
The boa constrictor grips
thick muscle contracts
clamping, controlling, subduing
Pressing into every gap
each pocket squeezed
all movement stifled
The lifeless corpse swallowed whole
it’s energy stolen
It’s light extinguished
The boa constrictor lays still
awaiting another free roamer
to wander over dangerous ground
thick muscle contracts
clamping, controlling, subduing
Pressing into every gap
each pocket squeezed
all movement stifled
The lifeless corpse swallowed whole
it’s energy stolen
It’s light extinguished
The boa constrictor lays still
awaiting another free roamer
to wander over dangerous ground
