Ridden by the Snake – v3

progenitor
ancient snake
reptile within us
under our massive dome
our reason, human brain
at our primal core

father, mother
master sleeping
deep down within us
spark, a trigger, fear
sets the snake to flight
reason cast asunder

encoded instinct
muted, unable to think,
to speak full sentences
fragments of thought, blather
while our snake
usurps control
