But Tom never missed
And now that adder is madder...

And landed on a venomous adder
This adder couldn't add
Calculus made it sad
Algebra and theorems made it madder....

Woozy Winter
white corals around
landscapes sparkle in pure white ---
adder snakes creep on creepers
white furs and sponges
ornament the environs ---
white fox innocently blinks

Hot Ice
Was your heart,
woven from the ant-artic circle?
Did your speech derive from the bitterness
of the deaf-adder, which is'nt moved by the charmers
charm?...

Good-N-Plenty
There's plenty of goodness out there
but it's been fanged by the puff adder DJS
now goodness is slowly dying on media vines
behind boarded up windows and riot fire
with pistols and rosaries at the ready
awaiting the fires of salvation...

What a doll you've been in this crisis!
I have broken my pubic symphysis
You've propped me with a ladder
You've applied on ass an adder
And brought me a pesky paralysis...

The Sum of It
Some snakes are called adders
And I know that's true
Most adders are very good at sums
Others can't add up to two
This must be a worry
For adders who can't add
This could make this type of snake
Both miserable and sad
Cheer up little adder
There is no reason for shame
An adder is not an adder
It's only just his name...

Illusions
The bloody soul we learn to hate
Is not our own nor pain within us
The visions of fantasy which we partake
Cause violence; man’s weakness, unjust
Illusions like the strike of an adder
Destroy the wealth of human might
The spirit strains at its lonesome ladder
And pitches itself down into the night
