What colour my eyes, you'll see right through. Into my mind, I'm showing you. Angels of mine have all absconded. The ballots are in and all are counted. A landslide shows only demons have voted. So words of hurt have been promoted. Poetry by Kaydee.

(For Marg and Laurice, snake charmers extraordinaire) Like the Burmese priestess kissing the cobra I must never take my eyes off that steely, staring, coal-black serpent eye lest the fangs swaying in that unborn smile strike in the split-second that contains my salvation or my undoing. Lips always poised between heaven and hell, I advance on the servant of knowledge hooded with an assumed mastery, that hood branded with Nature's tattoo: Omega, the end and that flickering tongue that reads my body temperature could cut it cold. Cold as the smooth-bumpy reptilian snout upon which I lightly lay the final kiss.

KISSING THE COBRA
Sometime I am in confusion because, In my room there is a portrait on the wall and the picture Sometime smiles give me applause, sometimes smiles and condemn me, Sometime smile and Question me ! When share it to my Fellows they tell me ‘You are lucky, Somebody is there to caution you’! One of them asked ‘Who is he?’ Really I don’t know! But always alert me! Everyone laughs and said ‘You are living with your scruples’!
