Snake charmer put a spell on me
Took off my shorts and
A hand on my knee
Snake charmer kissed my cheek
Not enough to pacify me
Completely
Snake charmer lying on his back
And he’s got a tattoo on his arm
Green and orange and his own skin
Filling in a map of
Snake charmer through a haze
Of smoke
From that last hit maybe
An hour ago
Eyes closed and
Shoulders glow
I am unprotected
From harm.
I got bit on the collar
By a snake
Charmer.

Green and orange and his own skin/ Filling in a map of Ireland." we've all known these snake charmers.
