nest of vipers around golden egg
dark bodies slithering through
black, moonless night
the scarred land is victim
to the venom coursing through
earth's unquenched veins
poison a pool around the heart
of one light that remains
the egg may be beauty now
but just wait for the shadows
to crack that fragile shell
so, whoever sits within, don't
grow curious of the world outside,
for, the gold in a nest of vipers
is poisoned light
