Snake envy

I think snakes are cool
Masters of presentation
Great shape, one and all
They wake up with their
Faces smooth, perfect and in place-
Resplendent in fair,
Calibrated lives,
Their lunch always satisfies
Clockwork appetites.
From tiny vipers
To great massive boas, they
Come in all sizes.
If I had their fine,
Measured, understated style,
I'd not be here now.
