You watch real closely,
you copy, and then hate on
my elevation.

Though I’m not a fan
of snakes, I’m flattered that you
are obsessed with me.

I bet you want to
know exactly how I taste.
You’d bite if you could.

Your words exude strength and confidence, reminding us of the power in rising above negativity, very nice work!
Whoa!!! "You'd bite if you could" That was alluring!
I've always had those urges, to sink my fangs into someone although I don't have fangs hehehehe. Loved your Senryu!
If he bites it means he feels threatened 🫣 I loved all three!
You have captured the toxic dynamics that arise in the competitive Powerful poem!
