here, where bones are bones 

are dust and rock 

and tasty treats for the bugs 

to have. here, we will dance 

to the beat of falling stars 

drink one last time from our cup

    the snake is hungry 

    so the snake will eat 

    and eat it does, chewing, gnawing, 

    and will you ever notice, little thing, 

    that it is your own tail

    the honey-sweet flesh that once

    to die of thirst.
