—watch for snakes!
the ranger shouted
twice, in bold subtext
the reminder
wouldn't want to tango with a
sidewinder
he must have read the rumor
she tends to melancholic humor
to lichen covered rock and spider webs, outside the beaten path
saddled the jeep to head off the aftermath
before it happens
bending time and space...............................
still a question lingers on her face
the ranger's getting smaller
dust clears, at last she hears,
in the echo of his holler
—watch for snakes!
