all uncoiled himself
and spanked the Elephant's Man
with his scalesome, flailsome necklace.

This is so obvious
A snake
the lost but not forgotten
and precious memories
Seeking out the serpent
The grasses drawing blood
And when I reached down
Grabbing before I realized
The danger inherent in the act
The jeweled corpse released
Its golden treasure
From below
The trickery of the hunt
I was exhilarated, hyperventilating
The prize won but not mine to own
Heavy in my hand
I would spend my life wishing I could give it back
