Rise, the serpent in me who takes no heed to my feelings
Who strangles meek emotions and drives me further
Wrenching pure vile and vermin from every pore
With fiendish cruel pleasure
He coldly rasps against my serene heart
Making mockery of my vow of compassion
And feeds filth into sinews
Where gold once lived
Fear not, as I battle this monster from inside
With his slothful intentions torn aside
Purified core imposing no threat
Shrouding blackness of mood
Slung in a knapsack, on the back of Mother Nature
I will commence my journey to traverse the world
A higher frame has been made for me and
What care I
