Viper

It's my life

It's still, cautious
Muddy as mud
lying in the mud
Crawling, crevices is heaven.

Carries rings and circles
Tattooed all over
With a triangular head
With sharp spiny curved teeth.

Sensing heat, it's timepass
Carrying poison in a sack
Licenced to kill, anytime
Carrying trespassers to alien world.

Danger is anywhere a viper is, be they snake or human, and you have captured that superbly in this finely penned poem, T. P... You describe the animal very finely and yes, it is licenced to kill, it needs permission from nobody! Very interesting write about my least favourite animal! Thank you for sharing, T. P...
