The Rattle Snake
I`m gentle ,flexible but deadly,
Patient when I`m sober, aggressive when I`m hungry,
Humans!They think they are wise by setting 'trap',
'Trap' for me!but I can see it,for this I hiss.....,
many think I`m weak,but with my arrow teeth
I go for the kill;and the venom flows through his blood stream
and the heart stops making me to have a smooth feast.
Slowly I move,twisting and rattling with my tail,
You can touch me,sit on me,but my tail?...
Please don`t go there,it`s the heart of my body,
I`ll strike you dead if you do.
I`m endowed celestially,when I fire my arrow teeth
to any prey;it runs and staggered back to me
for me to swallow; don`t underestimate me.
