🔎 UNIDENTIFIED POLL: Trench art snake, or something else?

[parsonwalker]

From a Union campsite where a LOT of melted lead has come from. I thought it was random melted lead. My buddy said, "No. Trench art. And I see a snake." So what do YOU see? Some soldier really had the Jones for a pretzel?!

I would expect a little more detail from trench art but it does look like a snake. Without better closeup pictures, I will say just melted camp lead. Opinions could go either way. I know that's not what you want to hear but JMHO.

That was my first thought. Pencil made from a bullet that finally got too short, then was bent over and tossed.

Not at all! I was not thinking trench art either. But I would LOVE it to be unmistakable! That would make super cool art if it were obvious!
