oh my darling serpentine

speak to me in snake tongue again

i understand it well

a first language of sorts

there are more on my tongue

i have a second tongue too        you choose them

i use them        they fit the groove

of what you seek        wet and cold on aurals

warm language sweats moist and wormy words

half-words        deformed       sound is sin-speak sweet

speak to me in snaking-ed tongues

suggesting skittish bites

that itch during your rancid fevers       you look 

so much less watchful-watchful in the

old toothless way of tired and washed out worn replies
