I'm with you .... I hate snakes! Very good S alliterations used in this poem that reinforce the slithery, sliminess of snakes.

Well done! Best wishes for the contest~!

Thanks Connie. We share a common fear.

Excellent

While I am not afraid of snakes, I certainly can sympathize with people who do. Man kind has been afraid of snakes since the days of Adam and Eve. They just instill a primal fear in people, and no wonder. While we don't have to be afraid of snakes, we should certainly respect them.
Nicely written...

Good

AN APPRECIABLE PIECE OF ART.IT IS DEFINITELY VERY DIFFICULT TO WRITE VERY SHORT POEMS AND AT THE SAME TIME MAKE IT RELATIVE TO THE READER AND YOU HAVE SUCEEDED A BIT WITH THAT.'SLIMY SILENT KILLERS' IS THE LINE I LIKE THE MOST IN THIS POEM.BUT I ADVICE YOU TO WORK UPON AND IMPROVE YOUR SKILLS.

I must agree as they are NOT my favorite things either. I think you do a wonderful job conveying the menacing nature of these slithering fiends. Great structure and flow. Thank you for sharing this with me.

Thank you Mystic Angel. Glad we could share this.

I think a fear or phobia of snakes is sort of an inborn survival instinct. They are so different than us and they can be deadly. Good capture of a phobia. Good luck in the contest.
