World of Snakes

World of Snakes

A Poem by MaxwellEmerson

Constant hissing

Slithering about the hallways and streets

Don’t get bitten

Their venom is one that deteriorates the mind

It makes you lose your sense compassion

It’ll burn you to your core

You’ll start to blame yourself for things not in your control

These snakes feed on other people’s despair

They’re even cannibalistic in this activity

The only antivenin is time and kindness

How can we identify these serpents?

Simple, everyone is a snake.
