The Serpent's song by B.A.Zanditon

the Serpent's song

 Slip    Slip    Slip
 I slide through sunlight.
 See how it sparkles
 on my soft black skin.
 I was a beauty.
 I was a beauty, then.

 The woman, Eve, liked to touch me.
 Cool and hard.

'Ah, my pretty temptor,
 bring her this.'

 I didn't know.

 One day dewdrops,
 another fruit,
 doing my master's bidding.

 

23rd October 1977
