Rattled

A rattle snake
Is twirling in my belly
In its birthday suit
Wearing my body
Like it's his
Forever
How long will this pain last?
I ask him
Tenderly
Quietly
Desperately
But he doesn't hear me in there
He is in the middle of the tango of his life
In my belly
Lurking like a villain
In a superhero movie
He knows he will star
In the sequel 
He's buying time
Studying me, his opponent
Eating my food
Feeding my soul
With ache
And tickles
Have you ever had a rattle snake in your belly? 
Maybe when you were afraid
Late at night
Or when you had a job interview
Or your first kiss
We all have rattle snakes 
Hiding deep down in there
And all they do 
Is rattle us.
​They rattle us.

    In April 2020, while experiencing  her first ever global pandemic, Tamar Pelzig  pledged to write something every day, even if it's only a word, so she welcomed to the world a daily blog to keep her creative writing wheels rolling.

    What evolved is a collection of short stories, poems, life lessons, blurbs and even a play or two.  

    If you find her lil' life lessons and imaginative storytelling enjoyable or useful - please comment and share!
