a big shoutout to my friend hannahpflanze who recorded the poem for me so beautifully.
Snake, snake
Snake, snake
you crawl through a hole
nobody sees you
nobody knows
Snake, snake
you follow the line
into the darkness
down and hide
Snake, snake
what do you know
what do you see
on the walls of that hole
Snake, snake
whisper my dear
will you come get me
so I can see?
Snake, snake
don’t be afraid
come back to me
you’ve got to explain
Snake, snake
what did you see?
I want to know
please tell it to me
Snake, snake
where is the hole?
show me the way
I too want to go
Snake, snake
what does it mean?
I feel the walls
closing in on me
Snake, snake
give me a sign
make it so I can
come back to the light
Snake, snake
you disappeared
knowing you left me
knowing i’m here
Snake, snake
what did I do?
when I saw you crawling
down that hole
Snake, snake
answer your crimes
I know what you did
when you followed that line.
