The serpent's nest

Eight snakes spake by the daybreak eight meals a day keep the dumpoes at bay, and for the night so brings that southern calm a balmy summer night filled with wronged souls so speak witch and which serpent coilt that thronging moron, that so strums the windchime in a befuddling hurdle, if the Hurly Burly's done then we have lost not and won.
