In a dream a spider swallows a snake and
smiles
like a
giant yellow sunflower being kissed by
bees
who
dance wildly with the wind as it turns
white
with
anticipation. The snake charmer plays
his
tune.
The spider dances, rising up, stretching,
elongating.
Her legs
disappear, drawing into her body where
they
turn
into a flickering tongue that protrudes from
her
lips.
She wriggles in her dance; her tongue waves
in the
air to
the melody, begins to sing a sultry, hissing
song.
Then
the charmer's flute begins to move, undulating
to her
song's
cadence. And the charmer is himself charmed.
He
sits
in a trance as his snake-flute wraps itself around
him
and
the spider looking like a snake swallows them
both.
