Urbane


       urbane, the snake embeds
         itself, coquettish, amongst
            equals 

       swiftly defanged
         ~ neatly deranged

haven't seen the word 'coquettish' in a long time--it was the perfect word for your poem :-)

Saw that word, 'coquettish,' on the back of my corset.
