Tonight as I was walking after dinner, down Bowery, I was transfixed by the jewelry window at New York Adorned, and a gold snake ring. My eye has been drawn to a similar item in the past, but on this evening I had a glass of wine and felt the familiar coil of desire tightening in my stomach and sending a thousand electric flashes of impulse per second towards my hand, the one holding my purse. In the end, I walked on by. This version is more classical and less Studio 54 and I almost prefer it, "an understated and elegant version of an ancient and timeless symbol."
