Silly snake
stop stifling
in old skin
you should be
wiggling free of worn history.
Leave it discarded,
lost on life’s path,
essence
advances
brand new.
Shock at first,
joyfully lighter,
forgetting
layers shed,
left behind,
and in time you
start again.

This tells exactly what his happening in our world... Everyone has there own way of interpreting a writing.. To me the skin is the "worldly pleasures".. Leave them behind and think about what really matters...
