This Was Her Shape and Texture
But This was The Color Blue:
I have always been convinced the Dream was Prophetic even right after it happened but I Still don’t fully understand how it applies to me... It was powerful; I tried to capture the essence of the Dream in a poem...
"blue venom" Of Matthew Knaub
she was a snake, not a metaphor
and my infatuation with her
was the might...
she spoke to me while i tried to seduce her
-out- from under my clothes
she was the last to leave,
only remaining serpent wrapped around my body
'slither out' by spirit called
came round and though my sleeve
the last of many snakes
which just appeared,
inside my garments
I had yanked out the ones
that were safe to sever from the nesting hive
underneath my clothes
the others were not -known- to be deadly
but she was blue, and extremly venomous
so gently i nudged her neck,
with my lulling spirit hand...
she spoke to me, why?
did she respect that i did not yank her tail?
i hadn't -felt- doing so an option
she said that i was a man of honor
and then she said,
"I'd bite at any creature that tested me
from other snakes, to ... (many named hungry predators) ...
even my own young,
if they snap at me, i will strike them down
i don't care" ... ... ... her voice
she respected me and suddenly I saw it as 'my might'
again i walked through the jungle
and i saw a male snake
tan, with a coiling rattle...
i jumped back, it snapped, and bit me, poisonous...
small pinch, ahh, dream pains... ... ...
So i pinched it back, below it's head
it was slain. And me... no longer threatened
I asked her why she didn't help...
the blue viper, that i had thought-seduced...
she told me that she wants to see me take command,
to rule over all those things,
deadly and male...
and she, i expect,
would rule all things deadly and female...
but only if they'd dare cross my line of vision
