The Wrath of a Snake

In the sun you dictate the pace, 
confining me to thick night;  
still you are trampling on my tail.
Cruel man i kiss your heel.
Coyote strolls not in the  day,
just man wanders not at night.

There is always wisdom in what you write, Kayode; animals usually react when they feel threatened. Congrats on your win my friend. // paul

Humans can be cruel to the animals that seem to threaten them. But, it is difficult to know their true intentions since they cannot speak... You're the only one that I've seen to choose the rattlesnake as your inspiration. A very creative write, Kayode! Good luck in the contest!
