IN THE GARDEN

There is a serpent by the garden
It hisses
And smiles
And pretends to befriend
Just like the one in Eden

And I see toxins
Dripping from his fangs
So I retreat to
Remote conversations
And sudden exits

You can't trust a serpent

Especially one
that has bitten you
multiple times before
