Progression Reptiles

walk into childhood bedroom (from the house on cambridge boulevard) and to

my pleasant surprise I have a pet snake. she is in a box. or cage. or whatever

I hold her let her wrap around my arm slither up to neck

tightening herself, I think friend

when I put her back in cage she is happy. and smiley if snakes would smile

I crack open balcony door (from childhood bedroom in the house on cambridge boulevard)

so that she might enjoy a breeze do snakes like breezes?

I leave scenes change I skip to sisters room and we chat. talk storytime sleep

timely return to sweet snake, she's not lonely never was, now she has friends 30

31 32 33 maybe 40 snake friends I still know which one she is still in her cage or box or whatever

has friends slither and sliding probably tightening round necks before and now I'm. can't keep all these snakes I'm sure I'd find time, don’t I want to find time? can't so something inside

have a feeling should close door (going out to the balcony in childhood bedroom in the house on cambridge boulevard) so that others besides my pet can snake ways out

leaves frame frames change back in kitchen on heated floors drinking pops with popcorn. seasoning too, go check in on snakes. her visiting, our visiting friends

she's not lonely, never was, had 40 41 42 43 maybe 50 snake friends I still know, always knew which one she was. is. especially now friends have fled, left behind skin shed.
