The taste of blood and that annoying sting of a bitten tongue. Once man got the taste of blood there was no going back, like a serpent circling itself eating its own tail.

Once man got the taste of blood there was no going back, like a serpent circling itself eating its own tail. When you have tasted blood, you will always want to taste it again. It’s the same with biting your tongue. Once bitten, you will never feel free from the itch of a bitten tongue again.
