Ravenous Hunger

The snake travels up the spine.
Coiling.
Twisting.
Contorting.
HUNGRY!
Looking for that sweet spot.
Unyeilding pain.
Wanting to enter the cortex.
Craving the complete system.
Striving for that place that will leave me lain.
Devising faceless replace.
Snake of Eden paid,
upon my for thine sins.
Horrid fire paid for my deeds.
Groveling to the knees of a demon that pays no heed.
