The Serpent Dances

Faceless masks of malignant strides
Burn me deep
Be still the chides
Fair-weather friends
Fiendish foes  
Dawn on me forbearing woes
Melancholy, she whispers back  
Tell me where my venue’s at
Breathe in me
Mysterious soul
Adopt my mind
Unwind control
Guarding the deep
Those will betray
Tell me, love
What comes my way
Seize the night
Slay the day
Prepare the games you want to play
Mindless pleasure
The breadth of one
Simmer until the moment’s done
Shiver until lest, the goal is written
The serpent dances and she’s been bitten
Love me harder
Sunder no less
Fill the skies with bated breath
Sell me Sunday
I break tides
No god for me
Spirituality writhes
Take no heart for what you hear
Pay no less for what is near
Taste the envy
Spread it thin
Indemnify what lies within
