Sunny morning:
a snake slides through the fence
looking for a prey
Full of silt
the Ganga overflows:
snakes under the waves
Raises its hood
a cobra in water:
algae criss-cross
Searching reason
in the labyrinthine pattern:
snakes in courtyard
Avoids searching
mushroom in the crowded green-
snake on the fence
Searches thorn apples
to propitiate lingam:
snake in sanctum
A snake's tail
coils round a sweet
in the box
Smells a snake
in the wet grass-
her smile
Rises with tickles
between the thighs
the dream-serpent
A yellow snake
slithers on the grass-
dewy trail of love
Climbing high through
rough pathway and stony cold
a green snake
A snake's dead skin
near the fence:
she stands unmoving
