Scales of razors
Fangs of fright
Sinuous form
Eyes that invite
Your soul from your body
Your heart from you head
He slithers down tree trunk
upon your deathbed
Eyes like jewels
A tongue that flicks
Scales that shine
A promise that sticks
Your soul in damnation
Away from the light
Take a bite of his fruit
To taste timeless night
