    Night Mother, a boa poem

    As I was denied (rightfully I guess, but *pppttthhh*! ) entry into the special boa POTM contest, I thought I'd post this here.

    I tried to take cool pictures of my boa this month, but I'm just a sucky snake photographer...but I got inspired by my big slithery girl and wrote this instead:

    0.1 ball python (Cleo), 0.1 surinam bcc (Carmen)
    1.0 sunglow motley corn (Jenson), 1.0 albino burmese (Lourdes)
    1.0 cat (Nicky), some mooses and ratters, 1.0 hubby (Rick)

    Crazy amazing work, that. As I was reading it, this voice popped into my head - a female with an african-ish accent. I heard raindrops and jungle noises and drums and all. It was crazy. Like something off a children's program. -lol-

    I don't think I've ever read a poem that inspired all that nonsense into my head, and I've entered a lot of poetry contests and read a lot of poems. Amazing work. You should consider entering it into a contest. X 1000
