TALE OF A SNAKE

Consider the snake, known to us as Joe Blake,
he’s friendless and armless and legless and shy.
We’ll kill him on sight, but I wouldn’t know why.
Please show some compassion and give him a break.

It wasn’t his choice to be born as a snake,
it happened; so now he just wants to have fun.
He doesn’t vote leftist, or the other one,
and doesn’t burn heretics, live, at the stake.


If you were Joe Blake, wouldn’t you want to be
self-actualised, tolerant, natural, free.
To other snakes, those are his virtues; you see ?’

he's gunna get a belly ache after that one.

Another one last night hanging from a pot plant out the front ????


I think that first one that I got out of the roof was about three metres long had babies .

There is a snake (probably more than one) roaming the sewerage system here in Brisbane - People lift the lid to pee and theres a snake in the toilet bowl. My Mum flushed Frederica my big green tree frog last week and I haven't seen her since - I usually put her outside (the frog not Mum) but Mum scared her and Freddy jumped into the bowl - now snakes like frogs - and Freddy has gone - flushed or eaten? Either way her swan song.
