The Awakening.
Jan 21, 2015
story
the layers of dust
sifting
reveal
the snake
long dormant under the heel
movement,
writhing, slowly
sands sifting
layer by layer, rising
slowly, closed eyes opening
movement
subtle shifting
sands sifting
unknown time
unknown space
serpent risen
leaving only its ghost life behind
a sheer, shirked skin
an empty reminder of the past
and a warning to whom gazes...
there is a serpent somewhere
out there,
it has awoken
and it is hungry
no longer under the heel
