To admire his portrait of a woman,

I thought they would stumble and fall,

As they turned away from me,

One who is made of flesh and blood,

For his lovely lady on the wall"

~ Snekcoatl

mesmerized by the glint of his sword

expect to hear tales of his feats,

how can he tell them that he feels as though

he sold his own soul?"

~Snekcoatl

I love your attitude towards life,

The colours that you wear set you apart from

the dreary grey around you,

Were you a flower, you would even bloom in a desert,

Defying all quietness, stillness and fear"

~Snekcoatl

But I would not dream of paradise if I had you"

~Snekcoatl

Pendant amaranths were referred to as "love-lies-bleeding" in the seventeenth century, or "My love lieth a bleeding."

was something one could conquer,

It was what they sought to master,

They thought Nature’s secrets could be wrested from her

that Wisdom would visit them during their candle-lit study

in their stone towers,

But She never came"

~ Snekcoatl

zain>>> other boys

From a Home Depot somewhere in a dreary Canadian suburb

And I could not believe my eyes when

A tiny lizard emerged from the soil of that pot

Where was she taken from?

She ran off outside somewhere,

The only one of her kind in this land,

Perhaps she was crushed to death, 

perhaps she shriveled up

In the cold with a broken heart,

I could hardly comprehend

The awfulness of her fate

~ Snekcoatl
