Like a Serpent

So empty my soul echoes in swells
Slowly coiling in intricate schemes
So alone I'm trapped in prison cells
Slipping deeper into maddened dreams

Swaying in chaotic splendors spawn
Spewing forth sickening designs
Salivating and slithering upon
Slippery slopes and thinning lines

Sweetening serpents tongues
Surely not as abstruse as thought
Saturated as smoke filled lungs
Shrouded in tasteless ends begot

Suffering from lies of sentiment
Sewn together then torn apart
Sure to be my mortal determent
Shattering my still and slowing heart
