Two Poems ~ Luyanda Mbatha

Black Mamba

In my old garden place
A fast, quick slithering creature,
Some are dangerous and kind,
Friendly-like,
Slidery
The camouflage
Spitting and slithering
Black mamba
This fast. friendly, kind and dangerous creature
This was a snake in my old garden place.

exciting, playful, interesting
morning, evening, night, midnight
sleeping, dreaming, warming
dark, cool
Night
