Snake-like charmer
poisonous inside-out
kisses like the bite
of a shotgun
and you're so gone.

Charming disappearing act
charming hole in my chest
Slinky sleuth sneaks his venom
into my tiny paper cup
teeth sinking in
moldy old greed in his
Blink-Blink Shotgun
punching new holes in my paper cup heart.

And you're just one of them, charmer,
snake-like disappearing act
with a hole-punch shotgun
and the broken heart to use it.
