My fancy padlet by https://padlet.com/aiswarya8595/ds8vxbfbfbr4efsj Made with no regrets, whatsoever en-us 2021-03-25 07:58:21 UTC 2025-11-08 08:14:09 UTC hello@padlet.com aiswarya8595 https://padlet.com/aiswarya8595/ds8vxbfbfbr4efsj/wish/1351676182 Green Snake, when I hung you round my neck

and stroked your cold, pulsing throat

as you hissed to me, glinting

arrowy gold scales, and I felt

the weight of you on my shoulders,

and the whispering silver of your dryness

sounded close at my ears —

Green Snake — I swore to my companions that certainly

you were harmless! But truly

I had no certainty, and no hope, only desiring

to hold you, for that joy,

which left

a long wake of pleasure, as the leaves moved

and you faded into the pattern

of grass and shadows, and I returned

smiling and haunted, to a dark morning.
