the serum

milking
the poisonous snake
of venom
then diluting
it before
injecting it
into a sheep or
horse. then
removing
the anti bodies,
creating a serum,
this is how
you save a life
from a snake
bite. who knew.
you always thought,
you sucked it
out and spit,
rubbing mud
into the wound.
the world
is fortunate
to be without
your medical
services.
