terror strikes
like a snake it rises its ugly head
its evil eyes..contemptful
it spits and hisses
and spares no one
indiscriminate...pure and poisonous
it bites all...no regrets
when it slithered into our world
no one knows
for how long its laid there
waiting and preparing to strike
we ask questions now
we scream after the kill
why didn't anyone see or recongnise it?
what chameleonistic trick did it do?
we give it exotic names
and play blame games
who is the charmer behind the snake?
why did we take so long to rise and wake?
