To the song “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”- the long version.....
Rattlesnake, Rattlesnake
Please bite me!
Give me the pleasure
Set me free.
I’ve tried cutting, poison, and pills
They’re no help, except for thrills.
Oh! Little rattlesnake
Don’t you see?
It’s just one bite
Below the knee.
Make it quick and Clean and Cut
Please open my door so shut.
Rattlesnake, Rattlesnake
Please bite me
Give me the Pleasure
I’ll finally be free.
Author notes
The knee thing refers to the Achilles Heel.

hmmm. a very interesting write! Dark, but amusing too, well, I found it so, but then my humour is horribly twisted, so yeah...very creative! I love snakes...Thanks for sharing this, and taking the time to enter my contest,
Luck. -
