King Cobra Snake

poem by: Justin McElveen
Written on Sep 01, 2021

Even the master king cobra would die from my blood.
Die as it slithers away with little food.
And I would laugh as the king cobra does after biting me.
Laugh while I sit on this cloud, crying, making it rain below.

I would sit and laugh as I eat a freshly baked cake.
A cake with virgin cherries on top.
I would cut the perfect little slice too.
Cut it just to throw it at the broken walls.
As I sit making it rain below.
