Hiding in the grass;
Did you have to be close to the house
And nearly bite my a**.
I didn't want to take you out
I didn't want to kill;
But you were too close to my boy
And so I fired at will.
I hope you rest in peace, old chap
As your spirit turns a page;
In the great book of the afterlife
Per me and my twelve gauge.
****(I really didn't want to kill it, but I do have Brian to protect. Although black snake bites are most often not fatal, they can cause serious neurological issues and internal bleeding in dogs. This snake was 5' long.)
