The shower hisses and mists hot as the heart of the tropics and she slithers from her bedclothes to slough off last night's skin. I recall how, in the passionate hour she coiled and recoiled and her bottom jaw unhinged. At first I found it sexy, and she shook her rattle well, but in the morning light I find deep in the center of milky blue eyes the cold blooded love of a reptile. |

The alliteration in this resounds well. Good job, Tao, and thanks for taking time to read some of my writing. |
