Gorgons IV

A snake am I and I jostle for space on the crown,

A beautiful slithery snake I take my place and look down.

I have many sisters in the battle to be supreme

We writhe alongside and like cattle we scream.

I am fighting for breath and I fight others for space

I hiss upon them and I bite them framing her face.

Venomous and green

Not to be seen.

Shiny and slimy

Bringing death in a grimy

And painful way.

My tongue darts forward and coils back behind the fangs

The young man darts backward and recoils, his head hangs.

Venomous and green

Not to be seen.

Wriggling and clawing

Together we work and are drawing

Him in.

We work the evil together on behalf of the crone

And monstrous forever we turn him to stone.

Resplendent are we,

Please visit to see

Beauty chromatic,

Sensation somatic

Upon her head.

We are many sisters and we act as the bait

Will come and see us, attracted by your fate?
