Fer De Lance

Let her rip, and take a dip in varied a color of blood Special swindling snake they be, dancin in the mud Watch yer backside though for when they go lancin While yer back is turned and fancied for a strike All the gold in the world you'll give for a pike Demon eyes glaring beneath the leafs If he sees ya now, trust me it'll be brief He got the features of a shadow, just alike So I warn ya not ta step o'er that hill my friend He's waiting for ya, ole spear head, dead end Then he got yer toe, so now that ya know Fer De Lance come and took ya below

To be honest this one began in my head and I thought it should be serious, but as I began to write it felt like I should make it more jovial. Mind you I'm not sure a poem about backstabbing and death by poison from the bite of a vicious snake can be jovial but that was my goal in the end :). I am glad you enjoyed it, sorry for the long response.
