Snakes

Some men
are like frozen snakes.
They are stuck in ice
and chilled into impotence,
unable to slither away
and experience their true potency.

They cannot show their fangs
or coil themselves
into a striking position,
their very nature deemed as
a threat to everyone.

So instead of being a
venomless symbol of
conformity crawling around,
nothing special to anyone,

some men salvage whatever
they can of their true selves
and go their own way

for it seems better to be
on a different path than

frozen to the core.
