The Apple

A pantoum: told from the POV of the snake-cave.

... ... ... ... ...

I was having a perfectly good day,
when out of the blue,
there beamed down a party to say
"this is not good!"

when out of the blue,
I shot lightning at them
(this is not good)
They shrugged it off. Ahem!

I shot lightning at them!
Not that it mattered to the one in blue
They shrugged it off. Ahem,
more than a few.

Not that it mattered to the one in blue
(I almost felt sorry for him)
more than a few
times he was targeted—not that he ever learned!

I almost felt sorry for him
but since they killed me, I don't.
The times he was targeted! (not that he ever learned)
they targeted me and that was it with my hope…

But since they killed me, I don't
think I can call it a good day.
They targeted me and that was it with my hope
(That's it for you—hey!)

Think I can call it a good day?
There beamed down a party to say
"That's it for you, hey."
And I was having a perfectly good day.
