snakes are better than people,

they don't ask for much:

just warmth and food to eat.

they're not as viscous as the stories tell,

they just want you to leave them alone

and let them  be.

i think that bad people who get called a "snake"

or "snake-like",

just give snakes a bad name.

not all snakes enticed Eve to eat the apple.
