Ophidian


You leopardess leach

beseech for Heaven's grief.

Spay you succubent sea serpent

for cheating me peace.

You spineless sea urchin, spindle the sea for soft speech,

sunder my swole-welting heart you serpentine beast.

Braze your cankorous cast of heart

and its inscestuously lying beats,

Believe you queen of worldly stark,

and may this world lie at your feet.
