Snake ( to all snake enthusiasts on tv)

On its ground it stood
and inflated its hood
coiled and arrayed
upon itself it swayed


A hiss as scary
an apt warning
or was it as wary
and panicking

of us as we were
of the reptile pretty
no doubt there
awesome symmetry

wave upon wave
of black and silvery
scale riding scale
 hypnotic, slithery

its magic sheer
when it is near
you,it can hear
even without ear(s)

beauty abounds,
dangerous sounds
folks do not hound
leave the ground

leave it in peace
to feed on mice
frogs and eggs
 from you it begs

a life of solitude
leave now dude
please do relent
to its resentment
