Dedicated to Darren White, he saw it all.

He hates the sun
when it rains
he slithers to the lake side
gazing at his reflection
still he smiles
attention is after all attention
he soaks it all in
a fool who fools no one
they all now see
snakes love ladders
he will never slither to the top
its simply to much fun
playing with the ladders rungs
forget all those silly raindrops
this snake has been caught and hung
