Notes About The Poem

Often friends are disguised as snakes. Sometimes all you can do is fight back.

Cobra

Cobra
                 venomous, dangerous, 
           slithering, hissing, injecting
            striking the prey, killing the cobra
                 protecting, fighting, attacking
                    remarkable, friendly,
                            Mongoose
