I liked this poem a lot. It was deep and disturbing. As a story it was pretty good as a poem it needs to rhyme more. Over all it was a good write in my opinion. Maybe the whole mood was slightly to depressing but it was appropriate for this kind of work. Good job

Thank you fineks. N. Actually, it is free style; if it rhymes anywhere, it is purely coincidental. Thanks for reading.
Comment from Carolyn Hilliard
You poor dear. I feel for you. the beginning alone had me empathizing. It seems as though this would be petrifying; but you've managed to not be. And having written this may help. I use to have a nightmare about trains coming at me. They would be a millisecond from hitting. I'd wake covered in sweat and crying. I finally told someone about the nightmare in detail. It never came back after that. Hope it's the same for you.

You're right; now my nightmares are about lions. lol Thank you and blessings to you.

I suggest you share your lion nightmares. Steven King shares his nightmares and gets big bucks. Is that a good idea!
Comment from Espresso momma
Ahhh, I 'hate' snakes with a passion. They give me night mares too. I completely understand that fear people have. Your photo did not come through. Evidently there is a glitch in the program.

Comment from JW
OKay, I am not familiar with "My name is Legion." I am not sure what this references. However, your poem is well written and the reader can easily feel the emotion therein.
Good job.

Thank you Jonathon. Blessings to you. And the reference is Biblical: The demon says to Christ, "My name is Legion, for I am many." Happy Valentine's Day
Comment from Veekz
Very well written! I love how you have incorporated the snakes into everything and seeing them everywhere. I also like the reference to "My Name Is Legion" with the implication being the 'we are many.'
Thanks for the great read :)

Hey, "My Name Is Legion" you knew what that meant. Cool. Love an educated reader. Thank you for your comments. Blessings my friend.

Lol think that's why I liked the piece so much more as well; with yourself being an educated writer! It was nice to come across something that someone has obviously put a lot of thought in to relate it back to something like that :)

Someone suggested that I hold a snake to get over it. Yeah...Right.
Comment from MAMONIA
Your word give vibes to my being and
awaken my fear of snakes. But to dream
of them would leave me sleepless and I
would hate to have them seep into my
vision.
How your words bring a crawling sensation
to my skin and affect me so strongly must
be the efficacy of your words, which flow
like a snake would crawl...so smoothly.
