Slithering and crawling
the serpant is calling
the serpant whose eyes
will turn you to stone

they're evil and dire
and burning with fire
they'll frighten the devil
and rattle his bones

the serpant of envy
of chaos and loathing
do not speak its name
if you'll keep your tongue

if you love your life
best be sharp as knife
or you will be sorry
with fangs in your lungs

and the fangs are just deadly
like a poisonous medley
that slowly and slowly
will put you to sleep

its scales are so blackened
its venom yet darker
the venom will calm you
through your veins it will creep

but hush now my darling
the serpant is watching
be scared of the demon
behind you it lies

stare deep in its eyes now
you'll stare at your death
as you lose your breath
no one hears your cries

Pyro maniacle greed
The piles of the obese
Will burn a thousand years
I saw the sun blink like the eye
Of a dark matter serpant coiled ready to strike forked tongue and slithering
To take us home
Open the door past the astral
Beatific infernal
Last sunset
Funeral pyre
Blessed to watch Witness to the fortunes fall

Old sun our ruin
See thru the eye of a dark matter serpent
Coiled tight venom dripping
From the sky
The forked tongue savors me

See clear your demise
You are no differ from slime
Miscreants and pious all dine
On the pyroclastic funeral pyres
The smoke of your bones
Cast your last hope and prayer
liars and their bile
To cold black despair
So many lives laid bare
The truth to you now bones
You let it slip thru your hands
Your one gift and you blew it
Spread across desert sands
Alien worlds 
  skinned serpants    
Embreonic soup de jour
new poisons

The thunder tells the story
Frail laughter and frail glory
Of my mighty love
And my mighty jealousy
Hear the whisper beyond the crack
Of lightning and rain and howling winds
Know the body of whom I long for
Beyond the miles of our division
The distance too great for warmth
For hearts of passion and a wild side
Take me in your arms I plead
Let's see a sunrise wrapped together
