Love, you sly, slithering snake. How you persuade all to fall on your blade. Cut the artery; replace the heart with a shade. That's love; shadows shifting until it concaves. Suffocating its victims, leaving no prints for its crime. Its idea becomes lucid, prose preaching its message on ice. The body is left shattered, thinking it was once wise. It smirks at your faith in it. The crossroads between the pines.

You get no visitors at all
Love, you sly, slithering snake. How you persuade all to fall on your blade. Cut the artery; replace the heart with a shade. That's love; shadows shifting until it concaves. Suffocating its victims, leaving no prints for its crime. Its idea becomes lucid, prose preaching its message on ice. The body is left shattered, thinking it was once wise. It smirks at your faith in it. The crossroads between the pines.
