Ayida Weddo

Never malicious, but bites

She allows ample time

For her medicine to work

Never giving more than

She knows you can handle

So slither away out of fear

Rest & recovery pleaded

All ways good, my lovelies

I’m here when needed

Salivating salvations

- salve

Oh my Waking heart

Why did it take so long

Ayida & Damballa

Slithering as one

mind & dream

Together again

We must lead
