Like a dying snake at the inn

When the wheels begin to spin they spin

I'm living two doors down from the world

With my hair unnaturally curled

And my smile relentlessly whirled into a grin

It's the sentimental mode I'm in

And in the mirror of spatial deceit

It gets cloudy again as I greet
Experiencing confusion or uncertainty as the speaker encounters their own reflections.
The nightmares I once made retreat from within
Confronting past fears or regrets that resurface during the transformative process.
I'm shedding one more layer of skin
Connecting the inner struggles to the ongoing shedding of the old self.
I'm shedding one more layer of skin

Like a dying snake at the inn
