Viper
His eyes were like glass
beautiful crystal marbles
hypnotizing the innocent prey
His voice was soft and caring
with the cruel intentions of
squeezing their souls in two
His time had come to release
his venom upon the ones
that grew to love and trust him
He revealed his fangs and struck
numbing their hearts
and poisoning their minds
leaving them paralyzed
The viper now meets his doom
and becomes the victim
for the hawk watches from above
