 Old poems … but yes on the dosage 

Lifelong favorite story of mine 
Judged on looks 
The desire to be seen
For all that I am 

Good and evil encompassing 
Read & repeated 
In multiple timelines 
Knew the moment I saw you
That you’d be my ending
- allowed you to reach out first 

Balancing the scales again 
(Undated) 

And 

Ayida Weddo 
Never malicious, but bites 
She allows ample time 
For her medicine to work
Never giving more than  
She knows you can handle 
So slither away out of fear 
Rest & recovery pleaded 
All ways good, my lovelies 
I’m here when needed 
Salivating salvations  
- salve

Oh my Waking heart
Why did it take so long 
Ayida & Damballa 
Slithering as one
mind & dream
Together again 
We must lead
