Oh, spiteful crevice
that lies down below
Concealed during daylight
but come nightfall, must show
its abhorred face, with lips of greed
intending to take all
and uphold no creed

​

It’s companion, the serpent,
Of equal sinistry
Conjoins with the other
And creates most sinful glee
Until their selfish needs satisfy
And without word nor thought
They side-by-side lie
