A Serpents Tongue

Through compulsion

Deceptive thoughts escape

Revealing a leech within

All blood replaced

Archaic Ancestry

Consuming the mind

Shape shifting

Hallowed guise

Soul engraved

Becoming a corporeal slave

Beneath the surface

Lies another being

Seeping through your skin

Beguiling

Transparent

Words flow like venomous spit

Shape shifting

Hallowed guise

Soul engraved

Becoming a corporeal slave

Riddled with disease

It breathes

It bleeds

It speaks

Lies

The mask of humanity breaks

Jaws open to expose this vile creature

Possessed in flesh uttering hypocrisy

Nothing does it taste

It's only purpose is to secrete verbal waste

Leech within

Holding to

One ounce of truth

All see through

To what lies beneath you

A constant struggle inside

Biologically lobotomized

Before you speak and even begin to think

Remember you're merely a man and not a god
