Weakness #1

Weakness #1

A Poem by Hannah Davenport

The coiled python which rests

in my stomach is poised,

ready for the strike.

Provoked, it springs from that

slimy den, scales my throat,

and the venom comes

as if from my own swollen tongue.

Good imagery, I really liked the pictures my head made up from this. The way you formatted it makes an easy read. Write on.
